It's Cowboys... and Indians... versus frickin' aliens!
But it's not just a brainless effects-heavy romp. Daniel Craig will be going all Bourne (even more so than he's done in the recharged Bond series) as the amnesiac stranger who may be the one to form the necessary alliance required to fight off the alien invaders.
An early script review describes the first act as all Western, no sci-fi, and there's apparently some quality character stuff in there.
As in the comic, buried in the cool premise, for those who want it, are undertones regarding the treatment of Native Americans at the frontiers, so expect this to have more reductive theories applied to it than Avatar.
Thankfully, the script review also points to "a horse/alien speeder/train chase" among a few amazing action sequences, so don't expect this to be a boring colonial relations lecture.

Stop using the word awesome... is this being written by a 12 year old girl? Film could be great though!
