Ian Kane Epoch Times The film offers both visual splendor and an interesting narrative. Rated: 4/5 Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Michael J. Casey Michael J. Cinema It’s easy to like the villains in a Ranown western. But in "Comanche Station," you don’t just like them; you feel sorry for them. Rated: 5/5 Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Michael Barrett PopMatters As always, the staging of extended shots is masterful in their simplicity. Sep 13, 2023 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy The story’s not the strongest, but there are interesting shadings to Scott’s character. Rated: 3/4 Jul 23, 2023 Full Review Michael E.

nick s The story was quite straightforward and didn't reach any great heights. But the production quality was great... solid acting, nice pacing, competent camera work, great stunts. With a sensible runtime for the storyline it is well worth seeing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/11/23 Full Review ashley h Comanche Station is a decent film. It is about a man who saves a woman who had been kidnapped by Comanches. Randolph Scott and Nancy Gates give good performances. The script is a little slow in places. Budd Boetticher did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This should been a Oscar winner for best picture and best Director Director best actor and best producer and best actress Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review bill t Dull as paint western here about a woman who has a price on her head, mainly because her husband wants her back since she's gone missing, and the many men who fight to be the one to do so. A lot of aimless wandering, physically and plot-wise. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review ogn d on tv in 5 minutes. time for a bong hit before it starts Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/05/18 Full Review Audience Member Randolph Scott is a frontiersman who trades cloth and a rifle for a woman kidnapped by the Commanche. Her husband has offered a large reward that attracts three drifters to their company. Another stripped-down western from the Ranown cycle. This film is all about the various character's choices, with the wrong ones punished severely. The beauty of it is you can see which decisions are coming, good or bad, and fully understand why they were made. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
