The story is about "good guys" Paden (Kevin Kline), Emmett (Scott Glenn), and Mal (Danny Glover) who rescue Emmett's brother Jake (Kevin Costner) from jail where he is being held by Sheriff Langston (John Cleese). They pull off the escape, Jake joins the group, and they arrive in Silverado. Now, they meet frontier widow Hannah (Rosanna Arquette), card shark Slick (Jeff Goldblum), and saloon operator Stella (Linda Hunt)–all of whom have their own stories to tell. The "good guys" confront corrupt Sheriff Cobb (Brian Dennehy) and attempt to rid Silverado of vice. But, when dealing with the nasty sheriff and murdering ranchers, a showdown is a certainty.
