Wild Bill
|
Wick
– with 66 Trust Points – rated it
Good
The myths about one of the Wild West’s most mythologized characters get burnished in this enjoyable biopic. Hollywoodized to the point of cliche, Wild Bill isn’t much for historical veracity. That leaves it free to make entertaining hay out of the many shootouts, lovers, standoffs, and saloon…

Bad
Not even movie-of-the-week quality, this lame Western is miscast, trite, and just plain phony. As a Western fan, I figured it would be worth a watch. Nope.

– with 17 Trust Points – rated it
Great
Every possible plot you’d want from a western is weaved in to Tombstone, and a stellar cast makes this film a must-see on any fan of the genre’s “must see” list. Kurt Russel, Val Kilmer (who is great imho), Sam Elliott, Bill Paxton , Powers Boothe, Charlton Heston, Jason Priestley…. Need I g…

Unforgiven
|
Wick
– with 66 Trust Points – rated it
Perfect
Just as Goodfellas is the ne plus ultra of mob movies, Unforgiven is the apotheosis of Westerns. In classic Western form the movie endorses the ethos of the lone righteous man doing what needs done, while at the same time baldly debunking the glorification of gunfighters in the Wild West. T…

Really Great
This epic TV miniseries follows ex Texas Rangers (Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones) as they steal horses in Mexico then get involved in a cattle drive to Montana in the 1880’s. A little Kitschy at times, but endearing to watch the pair banter back and forth and perform their manly cowboy roles. …

Wick
– with 66 Trust Points – rated it
Good
John Wayne’s final movie serves as a benediction for gunfighters at the dawn of the 20th Century, and for Wayne’s career as a celluloid gunfighter. It does the latter better than the former, making it more of an obligation for fans of the Duke than for Western fans generally.

Blazing Saddles
|
Fire at Will!
– with 7 Trust Points – rated it
Really Great
This is one seriously funny film, and still liable to shock and amuse in equal measure. The racist angle is well handled, and the spoofs, non-sequieteurs and general surrealism of “Blazing Saddles” make it as unmissable as a comedy classic should be.
