Summary: American Outlaws is a Blast
Review: "American Outlaws" may disappoint diehard fans of old-school Westerns, but it remains a fresh, exciting, and immensely charming take on the genre. Despite the cast of young stars and a similar formula, "Outlaws" has little else in common with "Young Guns." This movie is all about comedy and the very over-the-top heroics of Jesse James and his posse. The filmmakers set out to create a light-hearted adventure with an emphasis on fun, and that's exactly what "American Outlaws" is all about. Fun. Historical inaccuracy is a moot point. The legends of Jesse James and his gang are little more than a jumping off point for the finest action/comedy combo of 2001.

Summary: Hollywood Hangs The Western
Review: I'll be honest with you, I didn't watch this entire movie. About 40 minutes into it, I had to walk away. I just couldn't take anymore. This movie is nothing more than a vapid action cliche built around the newest group of fresh faces in Hollywood. It is an atrocity to the genre of the Western, and offers no historical value whatsoever. I am a big action movie fan. But it takes a little more than a piece of fluff like this to gain my attention. In the short amount I watched, I could tell the direction it was headed. The youngest of the Younger brothers twirling his gun around and behind his back and re-holstering it to prove he was old enough to fight the government agents come to rob his family of it's land is just one example of the lame quality of this movie. I grew up in the day when the Western still had some clout. Clint Eastwood is my idea of the perfect Western hero, right along with his protrayal in A Fistful Of Dollars. That is the standard to which I hold all Westerns I watch, and this one doesn't even come close. Some action fans might enjoy this movie, but it's sad that the Western has degenerated to this. I'd reccomend something from the good old days of the Western. Each time Hollywood does a new Western, I cross my fingers, but find only more drivel like this delivered. My biggest fear is that my children will really think this is how the Old West was. The director stated in the extras he wanted to expound upon the Jesse James myth, but to me, he merely road roughshod over it with this glazed donut of a movie.

Summary: The best movie ever.
Review: American outlaws is the coolest movie ever. It is about a gang that robs banks of money to build a railroad.The reason they do this is because the people who are building it killed thier mom. The reason this movie is cool is becauseit mixes outlaws robbing banks,for railroad money, with comedy.

Review: I thought this movie was totally awesome! Besides havin an extremely entertaining cast, the action is awesome. Who doesn't like a good ol' shoot-em-up-bang-bang western? The characters are so amusing, even though they are basically nothing like the real people. Just don't think about it so much, and enjoy it! Hey, it's Hollywood, don't expect it to be the real lives of Jesse James and gang... cause Hollywood never makes it exactly right. But i still totally love this movie, it's awesome! Anyone reading this should totally see it (again)!! ;)

Summary: Why do the bad guys always shoot at the feet?
Review: This movie was ridiculous. Even if you go into it know that it's ridiculous, it still is ridiculous. Why do the bad guys shoot at the feet? Why does some parts of a door stop bullets (read: where Colin Farrell happens to be standing) and other parts of wood not? How can Colin Farrell ride into the middle of a battle, shoot 30 union guys before they even realize it, and then get away because the northern guys are so dumb they only aim at the ground near his feet? I guess the way this movie is, maybe Jesse James is like Achilles and has been dipped in some sort of magic pond protecting him. I never knew Jesse James was such a nice guy, either, who only robbed banks from the evil railroad company. Never knew that the railroad company hanged people who wouldn't sell them their land (when the government was really giving them land). Do yourself a big favor and stay away from this movie.

Summary: Cliche!
Review: It's a fun movie don't get me wrong but at every scene there is a line I know you've heard in every other Western. If you like the Western plot form then by all means watch it and have fun but don't expect to be surprised. If you want a real Western read "The Virginian" by Owen Wister. It's the original!

Summary: Discover Colin Farrell as Jesse & Become Totally Hooked
Review: Irish actor Colin Farrell as Jesse James is absolutely astonishing. First, he is fully convincing as an American folk hero. Second, there's been incredible growth in his range since I first saw him in a secondary role in "Falling For An Irish Dancer." He becomes Jesse James for all intents and purposes and does every moment of onscreen action himself without a stuntman. It is a bravura, star stealing performance. The basic legend is known to us all, that the Jameses and Youngers return from the Civil War to find their home land of Missouri overtaken by the Yanks and the railroad barons pushing West with manifest destiny. Having lost the only way of life they knew, they became outlaws and robbed the banks and trains, also becoming folk heroes to the people in their territory. It is the most enjoyable western I've seen in years. It may be historically inaccurate but perhaps Jesse & Frank James plus Cole Younger live best in our imaginations as folk legends. It works as filmmaking and that is all that matters to me.

Summary: Light escapist fun, don't take it to be historical fact
Review: I've seen it and I don't think this movie is nearly as bad as some reviewers would have you to believe it is. You have to remember to take it as entertainment, not as education, and not expect it to be perfect. Tombstone and Young Guns were possibly prettier and more accurate as to location (Young Guns was at least partially filmed in New Mexico, the state where Billy the Kid did operate, while American Outlaws, set mostly in Missouri, was filmed in Texas)but this movie is not really too bad. It stretches history to the breaking point in several places and has characters doing things the real persons likely never did but it is obviously meant to be for fun, and the younger viewing market. Unlike some I do not happen to think that John Wayne was so great, Clint Eastwood was better, these younger guys do just fine and as for historical accuracy I believe American Outlaws is as good as most westerns in about every way.
