A lot of care and attention were obviously devoted to selecting locations, designing sets, and grooming handlebar mustaches. Much less attention went to making one believe that any of the events took place circa 1879.

Doesn't really cut it in the Western genre.

A tough-talking but soft-hearted tale that is entertaining in a sprawling, old-fashioned manner.

Not everything works, but what does feels like lightning in a bottle, which is why so many return to "Tombstone" more than 30 years later.

With real mustaches and fury in their performances, the ensemble delivers a marquee feature of the era. Tombstone is not just a fun film; it's a very good one.

Greetings from Lithuania. "Tombstone" (1993) is a much known movie by now. It is know because first and the most important thing - this movie is superb. Its also know for terrific performance by Val Kilmer who was snubbed for at least an Oscar nomination back in the day - at least. Because as good as Gene Hackman was in "Unforgiven", the best performance in a supporting role was by Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday in my opinion. Others were also great and this movie truly captured that friendship between two main characters. Now it is known that this movie went through 9 circles of hell before it was finally released, with directors switching and etc, and it's a true miracle that the final film eventually turned out to be superbly entertaining western. Overall, superbly paced, strongly acted by all involved, with one superb performance, great cinematography and very solid directing, this is a must see western. It's a true classic in many ways.

Amazing film, every actor was a perfect fit for their characters. I have to say for me Val Kilmer was the best part of the film, action, drama and pure delight. My favorite Western of all time. Highly recommended!

Love this movie. What’s interesting is it somehow feels very focused and loose at the same time. Like after the fact, I remember it being a bullet train of gunfighting but then I (re)watch it and it’s kind of a collage of different stories playing out.
