    Not bad for a mostly serious Elvis movie.

    Good Flick, better than average.

    It?s an unusual western, and an unusual Elvis Presley film. More morose than I was expecting. The period detail is atrocious. The hairstyles are right out of 1960, not 1860. Still, it tackles some issues, and isn't a shallow film. Well produced

It was a great...( read more) film and it was watch.
