Young Guns (Special Edition)

From: $5.09

Part of what was touted as a late-1980s revival of Westerns (and you can see how long that lasted), this good-looking, empty-brained film was like a spurs-and-chaps version of a Joel Schumacher movie, filled with pretty faces, prettier imagery, and absolutely no new ideas. The idiotically grinning Emilio Estevez is cast as Billy the Kid, who slowly accumulates a gang of Brat Pack buddies (Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland, Dermot Mulroney) and fashions them into a group of male models with six-guns. The action is confused and the script is trite, though Terence Stamp is intriguing as the old reprobate who helps the gang get its act together. Followed by an even worse sequel. --Marshall Fine

From: Amazon Posted: Apr 01, 2008 Type: User Review One of the few Westerns I love

Being a film buff all of my life, Westerns were the one film genre that I would prefer not to watch growing up. The only westerns I care for are Sileverado, Unforgiven, The Quick and The Dead & Posee. Young Guns is a mixture of semi pop culture...

Great action movie. Old western about some true characters that portrays an American outlaw. I purchased both Young Guns and Young Guns II for my dvd collection. I like the history, true story type of movies.

This western is another view of the Lincoln County War, the commercial rivalry between business owners over cattle, government contracts, etc. John Tunstall offers a home to young men. Dolan and Murphy are in cahoots with Sheriff Brady; they are...

The '88 mini-classic 'Young Guns' is a rowdy, shoot em up, good old time starring some of Hollywood's favorite young actors at the time of its release. Emilio Estevez delivers probably his best role to date as the hot-headed, amoral Billy the Kid....
