Movie Reviews of The Desperate Trail

Movie Review: Service was great
Summary: 3 Stars

Delivery and quality was great. Movie was alright. Not a great movie but just an alright one.

Movie Review: A Good Western With A Twist
Summary: 4 Stars

A woman is on the run from her father in law who blames her for killing his son, refusing to believe her tale that his son was physically abusive and she killed him in self defense. There are moments where the movie drags, but it redeems itself. I like the fact that the woman is good with a gun and knows how to take care of herself. It's not typical Sam Elliot because he plays against his usual type, but it's still a good movie with lots of good action!

Movie Review: A little different
Summary: 4 Stars

I think it's a little "different" for Sam Elliot to not be the good guy but in this one he is the not-quite-good guy. His character is obsessed, even beyond reason at times.
Regardless, it is the expected strong character Elliot plays so well and even the "bad guys" are not so bad after all.
If you're a Westerns fan, this is an excellent addtion for your collection.

Movie Review: A Real Stinker
Summary: 1 Stars

I should have paid more attention to the first reviewer. This is a VERY BAD movie. Not only does Sam Elliot (my reason for buying the dvd) play a totally unlikeable character, but there are no redeeming features to this film. This is a very low low budget film. Basically, just two people (who kill without a second thought) running from another group of people (who kill without a second thought). The sound track (no one could call this music) is dreadful and distracting. The person who made it must have had only 5 instrument samples with which to do the "score." Revolting, actually.
Don't buy this film if you like other Sam Elliot movies. I do recommend Conager and The Quick and the Dead.

Movie Review: The Desperate Trail
Summary: 5 Stars

As an avid Sam Elliot fan The Desperate Trail depicts the subtleness of life in the West with the thrill of the chase as Sam Elliot is determined to capture his prisoner and settle the score for her killing his son. When I learned what her husband did to her, I ended up rooting for the the prisoner. The tone of the movie depicts the harsh life living on the frontier and how the law is handled ina lose way. I recommend this movie to those who enjoy a tastle of the Old West and how we ourselves would like to have been living out there during that time.
