    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This dvd is superb. Appaloosa is a Western film based on novel Appaloosa by crime writer Robert B. Parker.

    It stars Ed Harris (who also directs the film), and Viggo Mortensen (of Lord Of The Rings fame).

    Appaloosa is centred around lawman Virgil Cole (played by Ed Harris) and his sidekick Everett Hitch (played by Viggo Mortensen), who are two friends who are hired to defend a lawless 1880s town from a murderous rancher - Randall Bragg (played by Jeremy Irons).

    Their efforts are disrupted and their friendship is tested by the arrival of an attractive widow - Allie French (played by Renée Zellweger of Bridget Jones fame).

    Well worth watching.

    We really enjoyed this, it was just like the old ones I used to watch. Shoot outs like all westerns should be. Certainly worth a watch...

    Run of the mill western with all the usual cliches.

    Entertaining watch for when all you want is something to pass the time: leave your intellect at the door though you wont need it.

    Nonsense. Waste of good actors and my time. Silly, predictable plot and too long. Can't think of any more things to say it was so poor.

    What a waste of an entire cast of good actors. And why rehearse a plot which has been repeated so many times e. g. notably and definitively by Clint Eastwood?

    Fine acting, as to be expected from the cast, but the plot is basically boring. Very little tension and no decent gunfights.
