kyoshigurelover 2008-05-01 ch 1,	abuseWow... that last sentence is so powerful. I loved how the entire fanfic is in third person, but it's almost like Charlie is talking. It added a nice, realistic touch. Poor Charlie... I'm sure getting shot by his boss is the most painful thing he's ever had to go through, and it has nothing to do with the bullet... Adding this to my favs list :D
Speakfire 2008-04-21 ch 1,	abuseA very good story. I like how you've made the largely heartless Charlie (who I was completely rooting against the whole movie) feel somewhat normal, in his own way like every other man. More of a killer of course, but capable of feeling loyalty and pain and betrayal, none the less.
Arleena 2008-04-12 ch 1,	abuseWow... that was an intriguing look into the twisted mind of Charlie Prince. Fantastic, really. The realism you gave to it from your use of slang and the distinct speaking pattern gave it realism. Thank you. :)
Aranel71390 2008-04-06 ch 1,	abuseBravo! Trying to write the way the characters talk in the movie is a pain in the butt, but you hit the nail on the head with that one. Excellent work. Feel so bad for poor Charlie. =(
Miasen 2008-04-01 ch 1,	abuseWow, this was a wonderful read! I love how you captured Charlie's character, it was beautiful yet so very sad. Excellent work!
KnightGuardian 2008-01-27 ch 1,	abusewow. i didnt much like charlie seeing as how he killed Dan like that...but the way you write him makes me look at things from another angle and that means this was written pretty damn well. So kudos to you!
wild wolf free17 2008-01-25 ch 1,	abuseLovely.
Queen of the Red Skittle 2008-01-21 ch 1,	abuse...Wow. This is ... wow. Very, very well done. I love your unique dialect to this fic - "he ain't", "climbin'", etc. - but most of all I love the way you started with a sentence then for your entire fic led up to your last sentence, which was powerful in it's own right. "He ain’t exactly the thinkin’ type, but in all his years, nothing has hurt as much as betrayal, especially betrayal by God." All I can say is WOW. And what really gives its impact is that, yeah, I can actually see this passing through Charlie Prince's mind. Really well done. A pleasure to read. QOTRS~*~
bachaboska 2007-11-14 ch 1,	abuseHe ain’t exactly the thinkin’ type, but in all his years, nothing has hurt as much as betrayal, especially betrayal by God. Aw...so sad;( I love this story and how you invited as to Charlie's head;P
Nefalkarx 2007-10-28 ch 1,	abuseWow, I'm so in love with your story. Your details are amazing; your writing style is amazing. Charlie Prince was such a fascinating character. It was interesting to see what was going on inside his head, when he was shot. ANYWAY. I shall be adding this to my favorites now. ;3
Lauren 2007-10-19 ch 1, anon.	abuseYou have captured, EXACTLY, what was going through my mind when I saw this movie. At the time I was going to write a review for my school paper, so I was thinking, "What thoughts were flashing through that guy's head when Wade shot him?" All I could think of was him saying, "Boss, Boss!" It really broke my heart--and the fact that he was a) a great actor and b) a hunky actor made it a whole lot more real to me. In this piece, you got the aint's and the double negatives down flat. It really helped the tone of the story, even though that really wasn't necessary. You are such a wonderful writer, able to get into the minds and hearts of the charactes and the reader. That last line really got me, too.
patiently 2007-10-14 ch 1,	abusethis was really well done! you really tuned in to charlie's character. i'm glad there are at least a few people doing 3:10 to yuma fics.. great job!
Mars Murphy 2007-10-10 ch 1,	abuseThis was really great. Ohmygoodness. The narrative flowed so naturally, and so smoothly -- some people just can't get their Western dialogue (or in this case, monologue) down without sounding like they are very obviously trying, but you totally nailed it. I loved the part about Charlie's eyes... obviously he doesn't recognize his own psychotic twinkle when he looks in the mirror.
La Flamingo 2007-10-08 ch 1,	abuseThere are not NEARLY enough 3:10 to Yuma fanfics here, but I have to say that if you're the frontrunning author, you're doing an absolutely fantastic job. It's beautifully done, the prose incredible in the sense that it does follow Prince's speech to the 'T' and the thought process just...amazing. I'm envious of your skills, because you really do a beautiful job. Oh, and I loved this: "It feels suspiciously like crying, but crying is completely alien and he isn’t sure he even knows how one goes about doing it." Clever, but sad at the same time. A very well thought out and superbly drawn story. Keep it up. Cheers, ~LF
psychonerd5 2007-10-07 ch 1, anon.	abuseAwesome one-shot. Interesting how you wrote it just like Charlie would speak it. The reasoning behind everything was good, and I especially enjoyed that last line since it's really in tune with Charlie's character.
