Although the protagonist (Scott) stubbornly refuses to recognize the irrationality of his obsession, his visit serves as a catalyst for the inhabitants of Sundown, who suddenly realize the folly of their subservience to Carroll. As Peary notes, the film is &#8220;well directed, offbeat, and psychologically complex,&#8221; with an &#8220;effective but downbeat script&#8221; by Charles Lang, Jr. However, Peary adds he has &#8220;a hard time enjoying [the] film because Scott&#8217;s character is too crazed by revenge to admire&#8221;; like &#8220;all Boetticher heroes, he must come to terms with his own flaws, obsessions, and blindness.&#8221; Lang&#8217;s screenplay moves along at a fast clip, and makes excellent use of a surprise revelation, a stalled wedding, a daylong stand-off, and a &#8220;satisfying, unusual ending.&#8221; This one remains well worth a viewing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Randolph Scott as a man nearly blinded by obsessive vengeance<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-54848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott.jpg 640w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott-128x96.jpg 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Scott-360x270.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>John Carroll&#8217;s surprisingly nuanced characterization as the womanizing Tate Kimbrough<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-54846\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough.jpg 640w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough-128x96.jpg 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Kimbrough-360x270.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Exciting use of claustrophobic locales<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-54847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale.jpg 640w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale-128x96.jpg 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Locale-360x270.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>A surprising ending<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-54844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff.jpg 640w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff-128x96.jpg 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/Decision-Sundown-Standoff-360x270.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes.
