Y'know what Seth MacFarlane is? He's a bully who thinks he's a victim. He casts himself here as a poor put-upon farmer, who is unfairly mistreated and dumped by a girlfriend despite the fact that he is sweet and kind and sensitive (or at least as sweet and kind and sensitive as man who makes occasional anti-Semitic jokes can be).

It would be one thing if MacFarlane used the regressive attitudes of the West to poke fun at bigots even a single time in this movie. But the West isn't a platform for satire here; it's an excuse to tell offensive jokes because "that's what people were like back then." MacFarlane's character hates the West, but I think MacFarlane himself…

It's easy to make me laugh. Just show me a feather and I'll already beg you to stop tickling me. Show me youtube clips of people falling on their asses and I'll have a riot. But most of all, put me in a theater where a comedy is playing, and no matter how bad it may be it will still make me laugh. It will probably take a few dozens of comedies seen in the theater before this magical effect wears off. Or maybe I'll always have a good time. That's why I'm going to see it, to have a good time, I'm going in ready to laugh and it's going to take a really bad comedy to make me…

Once upon a time in the West there was a Seth MacFarlane comedy that took the 3:10 to Yuma, but ended up in I've-seen-it-before-ville. A not-so-life-friendly place where a sheep herder inclined to shaking in his boots eventually finds his true grit, subduing foes, fears and f'd up hallucinations.

There's good, bad and ugly in this film. Mostly good, heavens be praised, but also a weak and predictable storyline that does like Sarah Silverman's character in the house of ill repute: blows like there's no tomorrow.

Laughs come in all shapes and sizes. Weird, revolting, brutal and occasionally hilarious. Like any episode of Family Guy, however, there's also a dominant chunk of miniscule chuckles and tumbleweeds rolling by as some…
