Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

qormi This movie can't even be classified as a "Western". Emilio Estevez was not convincing. Then, we were subjected to viewing his naked butt. The guy is just not a good actor...Then, someone is always calling after him...."Beellaaay...Beellaaay..." Not, Billy; Beellaaay. Puhleeze. Then, there's the part where Lou Diamond Phillips' character gets stabbed right through his forearm. Can you imagine the pain and bone breakage associated with such an injury? The severed nerves, tendons..the inevitable infection? Nope. The knife was simply pulled out without so much as a wince. Then, he's just fine in the next scene, as if nothing had happened. Nobody was convincing in this film. It just seemed like a bunch of short Hollywood types hamming it up.

kovendi_zoli Don't get me wrong I like the Good,Bad and the Ugly, The Unforgiven, 3:10 to Yuma and all the classic westerns, but this movie is different. It' s a movie with heart and an incredible moral value, and it has a lot of funny moments too. You can't run to the end of the time, once you have to face things, and you must have loyalty toward your friends. I have seen it like 5 times, but I enjoy it every time. It has a great soundtrack, the compositor did a great job. Go see it, you won't be disappointed, it's far better than the first one. I hope one day will be a third part, till than I will see the second part over and over again.

lost-in-limbo The follow up to "Young Guns" is just as entertaining, if nothing more. As for accuracy look elsewhere, because this quick draw teenage (looking to be hip) aimed western is a passable gung-ho outing by director Geoff Murphy. It's not tough, but it's buoyant. One thing I noticed more was the comical angle being in full force with a lot of smarting quips and the blaring image of seeking fame or making a name for yourself as it seems to take priority over ones own life. All glory, little else in seeking to make a name to go down in history. Even Jon Bon Jovi chips away with his tune "Blaze of Glory" and contributes to most of the scorching rock soundtrack. The performances are variably delivered in a dead serious or sardonically cheeky manner. The likes Kiefer Sutherland, Lou Diamond Phillips and the lively Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid return. Estevez dons on some make-up to age him, which only looks ridiculous and so is his croaky narration running through the feature. Some new faces with Christian Slater, Alan Ruck, Viggo Mortensen and William Petersen's steely conviction giving the best performance of the lot as Pat Garrett. When he takes up the offer to hunt down Billy, there's something imposing about Petersen's figure dressed in black and those glazed eyes. Also you got small parts from Tracey Walter and James Coburn (who played Garratt in Sam Peckinpah's Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid) to chew on his lines to quickly spit them out. Murphy does a stylish job delivering on theatrically set-up gunfights and adding some scope to his craftsmanship. Outside the witty exchanges, there are also plenty of spirited visual gags too. I didn't mind the humour and found it rather fitting.

insomniac_rod The perfect movie to watch as a kid and understand the "buddy" term in pop culture, well, in Western.The action is great but the movie's best feature is it's fast pace. The events are all extremely entertaining if you really get into the plot. You know, it deals with the good against the bad guys.The acting is also pretty good specially from Lou Diamond Phillips and Emilio Estevez. Both were my childhood heroes! Well there's not much to say about the movie except that it deals with good against evil and the Western problematics that have to be solved with plenty of guns!Watch it in order to understand the early 90's way of film making.
