| | Excellent Movie | CountryGirl40 06/20/2011 | I have always loved Tom Selleck playing the part of a cowboy! He just seems natural in the saddle and with that way of life. He is my all time favorite actor, right after John Wayne (The Duke).
I just wish he could make more westerns like this one.
Love ya, Tom!!! |
| | Anonymous 09/22/2007 | | mstrick says it all...one of the best westerns that I have ever see. |
| | Outstanding western! | mstrick 01/28/2007 | This is one of my favorite westerns. I consider it to be outstanding. The uncut version is best. Usually when they show it on TV they cut out some of the best parts for time. Perhaps if someone other than Alan Rickman had played the role of Elliott Marston, the movie would be taken more seriously.
Watch it for yourself and see if you don;t thoroughly enjoy it! |

| | Awesome movie | Larks217Mom 10/04/2010 | | Really a "make you think" movie about something that feasibly COULD happen given the stuff our government does...likeable and unlikeable characters both, and Ruby Dee is amazing (you wouldn't even recognize her as the actress!). Stephen King, like Alfred Hichcock before him, makes his presence known in the movie a few times. It's a must see with great accompanying music. |

In this Hollywood farce, four stereotypical actors compete for a role as Al Capone in Martin Scorsese's upcoming feature film. When Johnny DiMartino (Robert Costanzo) got the call to read for a part, he made the mistake of telling his actor friends. Backstabbing becomes the rule of the day.
