That's the appeal of 3:10 to Yuma, which opened Sept. 7 and was the box-office champ of its first weekend. Like the 1957 film, it's about Dan Evans (Bale), a family man on a failing farm who lost a leg in the Civil War. He sees a payday, and a chance for redemption in his son's eyes, by escorting the killer Ben Wade (Crowe) to justice. Screenwriters Michael Brandt and Derek Haas have opened up the action to include a trek in which Wade outsmarts or just kills most of his captors; and there...
...stole the show. Going into his 10th match in three days, Chijoff-Evans doubted himself. “I thought it was a bad idea to play doubles immediately before singles,” Chijoff-Evans said, referring to the doubles bracket championship he played with senior co-captain Dan Nguyen just before, losing to a duo from Columbia, 9-7. “I had lots of blisters, and I thought it was going to tighten me up.

We are drawn more to his insouciant spirit than we are to the earnest, hard-pressed (and well-played) Dan. When the rancher, desperately needing the $200 fee, signs on to escort the captured outlaw through hard country in order to catch the 3:10 to Yuma where a courthouse, a trial and, doubtless, a necktie party await Ben, we know where our moral interest is supposed...
