Audience Member Pretty good one with Kenny Rogers, Travis Tritt and Naomi Judd. Yes I will recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas November 28, 2023. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I like Westerns ... so this movie had a start in the right direction. I also tend to like Kenny Rogers as an actor ... so that gave it two steps. Finally, I enjoyed the basic plot premise of a 'greenhorn' (played by Travis Tritt) learning the ropes from a grizzled veteran (Rogers). There is also the added suspense of a damsel in distress. Anyhow, I enjoyed the movie up to the very end. I didn't like the plot twist that involved Stacy Keach as a bounty hunter competitor to the Rogers character. That being said ... this movie is easy enough way to wile away two hours if you are so inclined. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member love seeing travis act! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member i'm not really in to westerns but i like this one Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member this movie has both of my favorite Country singers in it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review ashley h Typical motifs of the spaghetti westerns can be found also here. Kenny Roger's character represents greed and Travis Tritt's character is fueled by greed. His beautiful wife (played by Miss USA) got captured and both are baddies. Kenny Rogers seems too old as the merciless bounty-hunter and Travis Tritt doesn't convince, either. Photography is well done and stylish; the art direction is proper. Plot develops well without any logical flaws. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
