A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST [2014]

Seth MacFarlane's second theatrical feature, A Million Ways To Die In The West is a raunchy-as-fuck comedy that really isn't for everybody.
MacFarlane hasn't a clue what he's doing behind the camera when it comes to directing live action and it really shows but that's not what we're here for.  The audience expects to laugh while being offended at the same time and this film delivers in flying colors (and a wide variety of fluids).  At times it's just plain stupid and a bit too much but occasionally a glimmer of wit and cleverness shines through reminding us why Liam Neeson, Charlize Theron and even Patrick Stewart would have anything to do with MacFarlane & his work.
On top of all of that, it features some of the most hilarious piss-your-pants cameos on film I think I've ever seen.
