Plot: John Cusack plays Myrl Redding, a horse trader who locks horns with a rancher who has callously mistreated two of his horses, as well as their handler, a Crow Indian. When the law gives Myrl no justice, he is forced to take matters into his own hands, leading to a cycle of violence and chaos. The Jack Bull was written by Cusack's father, Dick, who also plays a small part as the jury foreman in the film. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

John Cusack doest what he can and he does it good . So does John Goodman but both of them just look so far from true westerner's look . They're not Robert DUVALL or Sam ELLIOTT .
But I was so glad about good old L.Q. JONES who's a wild one !
Better get such a western than no western at all .
Thanks a lot .

The Jack Bull is a complete surprise among westerns. John Cusack is brilliant as per usual. But the story transcends the genre. The story is powerful and surprising. I'm not going to say any more than that because you should just discover this work of art on its' own terms. Rent it. Watch it. Buy it. Watch it over and over. (BTW, John's Dad appears in this film. Pretty cool.)

Good western.

Old style western. All about standing up for yourself.
And standing up for whats right. Not the best movie ever.
But you will enjoy it. John Goodman was great.
And John Cusack really made the part come to life.

TRUE WESTERN STORY
Added 6/27/2009

I have this movie on VHS, but needed to upgrade to DVD. Yes, it is based on a true story. (But being a sap at heart,I am not happy with the ending of the story.) Excellent work from John Cusack, John Goodman and L.Q. Jones.
The tag line for this movie: THE JACK BULL: ALL MEN WANT JUSTICE...FEW ARE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE,
Buy the video and a box of tissues. Enjoy! TERI
