Title: It leaves you wanting more.......
Review: I am a big McMurty fan, I have read all four of the books (Dead Man's Walk, Comanchee Moon, Lonesome Dove and Streets of Laredo). Out of interest I decided to purchase all the movies (Comanchee Moon is not out yet though).... Dead Man's Walk is true to the storyline of the book. That's about as nice of a comment I can make about the movie. I feel generous giving it two stars even. The musical score is dreadful, and despite the storyline occuring in the wide open the movie feels cramped visually. The acting is so poor it makes one wonder how the big name stars in it ever became famous. The corny acting is embarassing to watch through most of it. The movie is slower then a hot afternoon in Lonesome Dove. I suppose if you are a fan of McMurtry it should be watched, just to say you did, but if you have anything else pressing to do I wouldnt waste the time.
Is the review positive or negative?
