    A cool western set down under! Has a good strong cast and is enjoyable to watch. If you like most westerns, adventure films you should like this.

    A down under Western with a good cast and a good, classic Western story to tell.

    Decent western. Sharpshooter Matt Quigley is hired from Montana by an Australian rancher paying a very high price. But when Quigley arrives Down Under, all is not as it seems. Quigley Down Under played like a TV movie, and never really took off. But Selleck and Rickman were great...( read more) as advisories, and there were some good action scenes plus a nice musical score.

    It's my grandpa's favorite movie, but I can't say the same for me. It's not a bad movie by any means, but I noticed some parts that could have been a lot better and some of the more cheesy scenes with Laura San Giacomo could have been cut out. Tom Selleck is great, but it's Ala...( read more)n Rickman who steals the movie, as he does with almost every movie he's in. It's still a really good movie, though. "Heck yeah."

    Sorely underrated. Rickman is a great villain. Giacomo is a great crazy hooker. Music rules.

    Cool cowboy movie! Tom Selleck & Alan Rickman are superb, Laura San Giacomo is annoying (but I guess her character is supposed to be semi-annoying lol).

    Full of quotable lines. "I said I never had much use for one. Never said I didn't know how to use it." Also, Quigley stopping and turning around to take a good, long look and Cora is one of the greatest scenes in movie history.
