The Epic Western Opera
Sergio Leone created one of the greatest western epics in " Once Upon A Time In The West " and uncut it did pretty well when released in Europe.When the film was released in the USA it was cut and the result was a poor box office, and as such it recieved no Academy or ...

A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it
This is a believable, exciting story. The scenery is beautiful and the movie is just well-done all the way around. Alan Ladd, Jack Palance, Ben Johnson and the rest are outstanding. A gunslinger who is trying to make a new start in life thinks he's escaping to a ...

The Best Of Westerns, Crowe, and Bale
While the premise of this western is fairly straightforward, it is anything but simple thanks to two actors who give us their absolute best. Russell Crowe, playing a role he was born for, is Ben Wade, a charming, debonair, magnetic thief and murderer. Christian ...

Centennial: The Complete Series I am absolutely overjoyed that this fabulous video epic is now available on DVD. I have owned the VHS collection for over 10 years now, and have been anxiously awaiting its release on DVD. The story is big, the characters are ...

"Nothing is too good for the man who shot Liberty Valance!"

Bud Wright
I believe I have some insight into this whole aspect ratio controversy. For many years, filmmakers filmed movies in something called "Super 35." The final, unedited and uncropped raw footage looks something like the old Chevrolet symbol, in that each scene was framed ...

Lonesome Dove.
This is an exellent western movie I wish I'd watched it when it was first released.Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones are just superb.The other actors are also very good.The departure of Duvall I did not like but I guess the director Simon Wincer knew what he was doing. ...
Fox Western Classics (Rawhide / The Gunfighter / Garden of Evil)
Gregory Peck

Tyrone Power
20th Century Fox, 2008
"Fox Western Classics" delivers a real bargain
Fox Western Classics offer three major, but rarely televised, westerns from the early 1950s. A real treat, and the best of the three in my opinion, is the "Garden of Evil". This is a really fun adventure/western that has Gary Cooper offering lines like "let's ride!" ...

You've Never Seen Lonesome Dove Like This!
I pre-ordered this Blu-ray disc when I saw that it was going to be available. I was sceptical as to how much better it would actually be than the DVD version that I already owned. Let me tell you, it is COMPLETELY different. Seriously, the clarity, film quality and ...
Only the Valiant
Gregory Peck
,
Lon Chaney Jr.
Lions Gate, 2008
Outstanding Western
Only the Valiant is an early example of what might be called the "impossible mission" movie subgenre. Flicks of this type have plots in which a certain number of men, ususally hard cases, are picked for a do or die mission in which there is a high degree of failure. ...

Val Kilmer

Great movie
I can look at this movie over and over again. The added scenes and interactive game make it worth the price
Brokeback Mountain (Widescreen Edition)

Heath Ledger
Universal, 2006
Shed a tear
A very poignant film. I couldn't remain dry eyed throughout the whole thing, and I'm not one to get very emotional. This movie reminds me of my own struggal to reach out to someone when it's hard to. I think it will move anyone who's ever felt the pain that so ...
How the West Was Won (Ultimate Collector's Edition)

Lee J. Cobb
Warner Home Video, 2008
Review on DVD set for August 2008
I keep running into negative reviews for a DVD film or set that hasn't been released yet. I am not sure why Amazon feels in necessay to move reviews over to a DVD that has yet to be released but it's a bit like shooting yourself in the foot. Everyone waiting for a ...
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Humphrey Bogart
,
Walter Huston
Warner Home Video, 2003
Life altering film
I'm embarrassed to say that "Treasure of Sierra Madre" changed my life. I saw it as a child and was enchanted by three American ex-pats kicking around in Mexico and searching for Mexican treasure. By the age of 21 I was spending every other weekend in Baja and Sonora ...
