‘Cowboys & Aliens’ Opens July 29 Nationwide! Enter to Win Passes to the St. Louis Advance Screening!

Enter for your chance to win a pass, good for two!

1873. Arizona Territory. A stranger with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don’t welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde. It’s a town that lives in fear.

But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known.

Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he’s been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force. With the help of the elusive traveler Ella, he pulls together a posse comprised of former opponents – townsfolk, Dolarhyde and his boys, outlaws and Apache warriors – all in danger of annihilation. United against a common enemy, they will prepare for an epic showdown for survival.

  • Love Favreau. Add in Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde and Sam Rockwell and you have one great cast. Add cowboys going up against extra-terrestrials and it just gets even better. Cannot wait to see this.

  • Been waiting my whole life for some cowboys to kick some star wars butt. Throw James Bond and Han Solo on the cowboys side and you can't lose!
