High Plains Invaders

Just finished to watch High Plains Invaders and I feel like giving a fresh comment about it.
HPI is a 2009 Canadian movie made to be run on cable tv channels and similar. It was filmed in Romania by a Romanian company.
The plot is simple and straighforward: aliens bugs assault a Colorado town of the late 19th century and a bunch of citizens struggle to survive and then, later, to wipe the alien menace out of planet Earth.
As I said the plot hasn't anything original about it. The bugs looks like the babies of the aliens from The War of the Worlds, except they're not machines and don't shoot laser beams but uranium rocks.
The characters aren't bad after all. I especially liked that of a female bounty hunter that, even if unlikely to fit the historical period, has an enjoyable -even exaggerated- attitude of a though woman and speaks like a mob leader. Jules, the scientist, is interesting because he isn't the classic I-know-everything savant and sounds instead quite shocked by something his scientist brain can't compute.
All in all High Plains Invaders isn't bad. It's an enjoyable movie for a relaxed evening. If you like the western genre and sci-fi movies like me, then High Plains Invaders is worth a rent. Just don't expect to go anywhere off the beaten track with the storyline.
