Movie Reviews of Broken Trail (Two-disc)
Movie Review: EASY 5 stars for this Western!
Summary: 5 Stars
Sadly, this genre of film is slowing disappearing. However, on the bright side, we have seen Tom Selleck take the reins and ride tall in the saddle in "Crossfire Trail" and "Monte Walsh". Before this movie, I felt Tom was our heir apparent for modern cowboy hero and with very good reason. However another Tom (Thomas Hayden) could easily step up to the plate and give Tom a run for his money. Thomas has that look that cowboys "have" and one that can't be simply acted out. Thomas, take more cowboy roles like this one! What more can be said of Duvall? He has given us several excellent performances in the last few years and hopefully, there's a few a more under his belt. These recent Westerns may not be Sergio quality or style but they're pretty damn good.Movie Review: Excellent Western!
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this on AMC and want to get it on DVD when it comes out! It is one of those Westerns that you just know you will want to see over and over again. It did not surprise me that it was that good as I could not imagine Robert Duvall being in a Western that was not well done!
All of the actors are excellent, the scenery is beautiful, the story not only holds your interest, but is very believable and depicts the people and the times in an accurate light.
I also liked the fact that this Western covered a subject very few Westerns make more than a passing mention of and that is the Chinese in the Old West.
I highly recommend this Western to all that like a good story and especially a good Western.
Movie Review: Old time western with a new twist
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a big western movie fan and have not seen a western of this caliber for some time. This movie winds up the Robert Duval westerns that started with Lonesome Dove. Thomas Haden Church did a great job of being a convincing good guy with a rough edge and spirit. The movie itself has a new spin with the introduction of the story of the injustices that were suffered by illegal Chinese immigrants during the time period depicted in the movie. Gwendoline Yeo plays the leader of a group of young ladies smuggled into the country that are sold into slavery for the purpose of prostitution. The good guys save them from the bad guys just like in the old westerns of years ago. Thought prevoking good entertainment!Movie Review: Robert Duvall Toally Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
My ex-wife turned-me-on to Westerns, which were not high on my hit list before giving-in to her, (Yes, I was a easy mark for a sweet voice and and a pretty face, unfortunately it wasn't hers and she ditched me when I remembered who's it was that raced my heart! Tami, if you ever read this I am sorry for any embarassment it brings you, you know it's All true, so don't damn me, please?) Anyway, once I made the conversion from Comedy to Western, I found Robert Duvall to be the epiome of a Western Hero. (Perhaps who Willie Nelson was thinking of when he wrote M Heros Have Always Been Cowboys) This is one of Duvall's finest, watch it, enjoy it and never forge Tami, I won't!Movie Review: Broken Trail

ASIN:B000GFRI4K Broken Trail
As usual, with respect to Duvall films this is a great one....It starts out in a beautiful setting and only gets better....It takes place around the turn of the last century....Mr Haden-Church (from TV's Wings) also demonstrated he can also play a serious role when needed....
I highly recommend this film....It hits upon the the subject of bigotry, which was so prevelent in that period of US history....It may be suited for the entire family, but only with adult supervision....It contains adult language, adult content, and violence....
ENJOY, I did.....
