Summary: an ok cowboy tale
Review: this is an ok cowboy tale. I dont want to summarize it because im tired and I cant. saw this on cable tv on channel 42 over the weekend. wasnt that bad though Tom Selleck(An Innocent Man, In and Out) and Virginia Madsen(The Candyman, The Florentine) share a bunch of screentime and they have a nice relationship on screen. the only reason I watched it was because Christian Kane(Tv's Angel, Life Or Something Like It, Just Married) starred in it as one of Selleck's cowboy buddies. wasnt the greatest but it is a time waster

Summary: Crossfire
Review: This is one of the best western movies I've seen. Some violence
but no bad language. A good believable story line and it kept
my interest throughout the movie. Beautiful scenery and in my
estimation, a movie that the whole family can enjoy.

Summary: Selleck Classic
Review: Tom Selleck is by far the finest western actor around. He was incredible in Quigly Down Under, and is just as great here in Crossfire trail. His cool smooth acting as a trail hardened Cowboy, yet also gentle in Heart and spirit makes you want to jump up and shout hoooray for the good guys. If you are a western fan, as I am, you will enjoy this film.
Grab a snack, a cold ice tea and get ready to step back into the late 1800's

Summary: Selleck Continues as the Modern John Wayne
Review: Tom Selleck is one of two current western actors who continue the realism of the "old west" western actors in the mold of John Wayne and others. Westerns in todays age are an "acquired taste". Selleck is a natural and in this tale he continues his best efforts as he did in the Sacketts, Quigley Down Under, and the other great Westerns he's excelled in. The story has a character of realism like all the Louis Lamour classics and Selleck portrays the hero in respect to the writers intent to picture the real Old West. Virginia Madsen is an unusual selection for the heroine, but she carries off the role and doesn't detract from the plot. Wilford Brimley again demonstrates his dynamic talents as a great character actor - an unusual role for him but he adds credibility to the plot. And Mark Harmon gives honest credibility to the villian's role of all great westerns. For the Westerns movie buff, another Selleck success is a great addition to one's collection.
