THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

9PM, 5STAR ★★★

There is much to appeal to modern viewers in this remake of the 1960 western classic, not least a top-notch cast led by Denzel Washington, with Ethan Hawke and Chris Pratt. It’s a strong, action-led movie, but some of the swagger of the original is lost in translation.
