Plot: This epic western starring Val Kilmer, Steve Zahn, Linda Cardellini, and Rachel Griffiths was adapted from Larry McMurtry's sprawling novel of the same name, and actually constitutes a prequel to Lonesome Dove. Texas Rangers Woodrow Call and Agustus McCrae may be getting up there in years, but their determination to capture Comanche war chief Buffalo Hunt, Comanche horse thief Kicking Wolf, and an elusive Mexican bandit king certainly hasn't faded with age. Now, as Gus attempts to resolve his personal issues with longtime love Clara Forsythe and Call comes to terms with his feelings for local prostitute Maggie Tilton, fellow Texas Rangers Deets, Jake Spoon, and Pea Eye Parker do their best to safeguard the advancing western frontier from the legions of Comanches who have vowed to defend their land to the death. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Disappointng
Added 11/3/2009

This film is very disappointing. What I really disliked about it is all of the characters live missed up lives, I know it was hard living back then but still....I hated the fact that all of the females were prostitutes and one woman drove me crazy...god, she kept inviting men to her house and.....well no need to say any more on that subject. The story was also not very interesting. It seemed to have holes in many places and I was confused by some of the story telling.

So to sum things up, Sam Raimi's "The Quick and the Dead" is a much better western then this disappointing film.

Not the best acting

If you are buying this hoping that it will even come close to the original Lonesome Dove movies, you will be sad. Its not at all.
Good parts: I like some of the new actors, but its the cheeesy lines they gave them. Just ruined it for me. Some of the actors had fake as hell accents, it was bad. But, it explained the story line of Newt and Captain Call.
Bad Parts: the dude they got to plain Gus was horrible! What a joke. And who's idea was it to cast Val Kilmer? OMG, bad idea.
If you can get this DVD for less than $5, you will be okay. Dont go spending a fortune.

Now, the seller who sold it to me sold me a beautiful DVD with no scratches. It was in mint condition, and I appreciate that so much. My husband did enjoy the movie (it was a gift for him).

Can't get enough of McCray & Call and the new actors did an admirable job. The story is a little strange with the captain (Val Kilmer) & his wife, but enjoyable none the less. The Indian characters are expanded from the original Lonesome Dove.

An entertaining adaptation of Larry McMurtry's novel, even though I viewed "out of sequence". ak
