Reviews (1)
One star is for Johnny Cash, while the second is for the fact that even though the film has 100 minutes of talking, and you don't get the feeling that it's just idle chatter, but strangely enough, it's about something... And the third star is again for Johnny Cash. Willie Nelson as Doc Holliday? It's not as bad of a ridiculous joke as it may seem (if you don't mind that there's no physical resemblance between Doc and Nelson, you can enjoy his successfully dry lines quite a bit). And given the cast, the film (understandably) has a very decent country soundtrack, for which I'd like to give it a fourth star. However, characters like the prostitute (and the other woman) were so terribly unnecessary that it's not above average. But it is a nice spectacle. ()
