Great action, holds up fairly well

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very tense pacing, well conceived storyline. Traces of hokum here and there, but worth seeing once for kicks.

Exciting but dumb

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good action film, very tense, but the acting is stiffer than Arnold's biceps. Pick up an old copy in the bargain bin for a silly Saturday matinee. ;)

Beautifully filmed, but botches history
on February 6, 2015
Posted by: Nickels
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm a historian by trade, and this film has always bothered me for its botched history and skewed moralizing. It really is beautifully filmed, and the depiction of life on the frontier is fairly accurate. But when you set out to make a film rooted in history, you'd better nail the general facts. Costner filters the storyline through his own 21st century political leanings instead of faithfully capturing the attitudes and interactions of the era. The result comes off more like propaganda than either history or entertainment. And in the end it spoils what could have been a film classic and not just a tasty piece of eye candy.

Your basic phone
on February 6, 2015
Posted by: Nickels
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good, simple to use, functional phone. That's all we were seeking. Cheapest option with least frills for emergency use only. Works well, good sound. The only caveat is that the first one we bought died within a few weeks of use, but it seems to have been a fluke, as its replacement hasn't experienced a single glitch. Seeking "your basic phone"? This is it.

WARLOCK is the story of a town overrun by a gang of bandits and thugs, which leads the honest folk to hire Clay Blaisdell, a famous gunman, to be their marshal and somehow save them from the evil gang.

Stilted, tired Western
on November 14, 2014
Posted by: Nickels
Verified Purchase:Yes
Improbable plot and stilted acting ruin this one for us. To put it simply, time is precious, and there are far better Westerns to watch, enjoy and own. Start with The Searchers, Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Stars in My Crown. Go online and browse other "Best of" lists, and only bother with the ones with 80 percent or higher favorable ratings, unless a friend you trust recommends one to you. This one you can skip.
