      Audience Member Really good one right here. You need to try it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas, June 16, 2023. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/17/23 Full Review Steve D As is often the case, the film fails to show much of the true story. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An entertaining, albeit historically inaccurate, telling of the story of what happened after the shoot out at the OK corral. Good pacing, acting and shootouts. Not too much in the way of long shots of scenery or people riding long distances. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review william k Serious, contemplative Western is intelligently staged emphasizing the gravity and ambiguity of its revenge topic; chemistry between Garner and Robards is remarkable and, together with some beautiful cinematography, adds to the quality of this film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Tom M Jason Robards great as Holiday. 'Tombstone' (1993) relies heavily on this version. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/20 Full Review cal w I really enjoyed this western, A lot of great actors in it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Rated: 3.5/4 Oct 23, 2004 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Jason Robards tackles Doc Holliday and, like practically every other actor who's essayed the role (Mature, Douglas, Kilmer, Quaid), has a grand old time cutting up. Rated: 3/4 Oct 3, 2021 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row Sturges has the guts to confront a myth he helped perpetuate 10 years earlier in Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, and examines the effects of its morally questionable violence on the men who helped perpetrate it. Rated: 3/4 Jun 4, 2019 Full Review Nathanael Hood The Retro Set ...a plodding, turgid affair, drained of life or momentum by an enveloping morbidity... Rated: 5/10 Dec 29, 2018 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Depicts folk-hero Wyatt Earp's moral decline from upstanding lawman to someone so filled with hatred that he's bent on personal revenge. Rated: B+ Jan 4, 2007 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...marvelously entertaining performances... Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 30, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
