Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews The current NRA spokesman Heston is just right for such a controversial part, and gives the western some firepower. Rated: C- Mar 25, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Another good one right here. Yes, I recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas March 9, 2023. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Despite the ostensive attempt to show a positive portrayal of Apaches, the way they're framed in the beginning, as a threat, a menace, an "other", does nothing to humanise them. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review ashley h Arrowhead is an excellent film. It is about Ed Bannon who works for the US Army at Fort Clark, Texas. Charlton Heston and Jack Palance give amazing performances. The screenplay is well written. Charles Marquis Warren did a great job directing. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the action and adventure plus drama. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Standard western in its story, and it's pretty much only about Charlton Heston and Jack Palance feuding and being angry all the time. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Well acted by Jack Palance and Charlton Heston. It's struggle for the Indian survival and Jack Palance plays "the Messiah" for the Indians. However, the movie is really about two childhood rivalries that eventually have to settle the score with each other. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Rather ordinary western, typical of the 1950's. Charleton Heston makes a poor attempt at acting once again. Jeff Chandler is an Indian, once again. Decent production makes it bearable. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
