If you look at my other reviews, you know I don't say this lightly. The performances, casting, storyline, location, believabilty, pure magic !! This movie is in my top five, maybe #1. First off Val Kilmer should have won an Oscar for Doc Holiday hands down. and the rest aren't far behind. I will always believe what happenned on that set was one of those rare times when each actor brought out the best in the other actor; but not for a moment, for the entire movie. I watch this movie about 4 times a year, just to remind myself what perfection is, thats why I bought this 4th copy. Some of the specific moments that usually go un-noticed are, when Kurt Russell roust Billy Bob Thorton out of the bar; the part of Ike clanton played by Stephen Lang was done so well I could smell him. The relationship Dana DeLaney & Kurt Russell portray to me is amazing, for that time in history you wouldn't think they would make the choices they make; and what beautiful choices they are. Then there's Powers Booth in the river with Kurt Russell,and one of my very favorites Michael Biehn, every scene he is in.Read full review
This movie is excellent. I consider it a Classic, and I don't use that word very much. The Actors and Actresses are all very good, especially Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer. Charlton Heston has a cameo role. The dialogue is firstrate, and follows the Historical chain of events quite closely. A Classic for sure.
A great movie. The best cowboy made for a long time! Its funny, sad, its a love story and its history. The stars brought surprising personalities to the names I heard in history. Living around some of the town mentioned the people told the stories of these men. Seeing it acted out so well was a tale come true. Each of the actors resembled the real people.

I bought the movie Tombstone with Val Kilmer, Kirt Russell, and Sam Elliot. It is set in a western setting of the O.K. Corral. It is a western about a man that gets out of law enforcement and wanting to settle down with his 2 brothers, a close friend and their wives. It turns out that the "gang" of the region does not like the fact that a old "law man" is in their town. Some words are said and one of the 2 brothers gets killed. And the gang war is on. The law man sets his family to heading some where else, while he with his close friend and 2 confidonts track down the gang that shot his brother. He does not rest until they are all dead. This is my second copy of this movie. It is a great show to share with your family. Growing up I watched this movie every Saturday for years. I would recommend this movie to everyone.Read full review
Movie description Arizona, 1879. Legendary Dodge City marshall Wyatt Earp, his wife Mattie and his brothers Virgil and Morgan just rode into Tombstone. These veteran frontiersmen hope to open a small business and settle into a quiet life. But they get more than they bargained for: Tombstone is a lawless municipality inhabited by a bunch of carousing locals. To make matters worse, the entire village is victimized by a gang of infamous outlaws. Wyatt, Virgil and Morgan may be the only formidable force around to confront them head-on. *************************************************************************** We really did like this movie -- some parts were a little slow -- but a good western !!
