Tom Selleck plays Matthew Quigley, the cowboy hero in this traditional Western, set very untraditionally in Australia. After some macho silliness in the opening minutes, the story settles into a surprisingly evocative tale of Quigley, a sharpshooter who had come to the country to work for a land baron (Alan Rickman) and who is on the mend after a brutal attack. In the company of a woman (Laura San Giacomo) abused by that same baron, Quigley gets his strength and his shooting skills back while healing in the midst of aboriginal people as well as some stunning Australian settings. Director Simon Wincer (Phar Lap) brings a lot of integrity to this rare horse opera from contemporary Hollywood. --Tom Keogh

Rating : - Great Western
We have watched this movie so many times. We are on our 2nd VHS tape and I am buying the DVD to give to my son so his family can enjoy it.

I have always been a Tom Selleck fan but his best movies are the westerns. His Sackett movies with Sam Elliott make you believe that he really was a cow boy in the old west.

All I can say is that I wish we had more of these kinds of movies instead of some of the wierd junk that is out today.

If you love westerns then you will love this movie.
