Open Range
It is a film that captures the range of events of a former weapon pioneer. This man seems to have had a different experience by taking up arms again when he and his cattle crew face a corrupt elder. It can be a difficult task for ranchers who rule the region through real fear and violence every time.

Something like...It's a Wonderful Life, only rich in slaughter.

A movie that seeks no higher calling than to entertain us the way Hollywood used to.

The casting of this film may be its greatest asset: Duvall and Costner have the easy familiarity of longtime partners.

Thoroughly enjoyable and involving, Kevin Costner's Open Range is a beautifully made western about flawed heroes who believe in redemption, loyalty and respect.

Range is handed a stunning period scope by Costner's directorial eye, while forming an unexpectedly tender core to help endear these character past their grizzled exterior.

The thunderous climax -one of the muddiest, bloodiest and most chaotic gunfights of the 2000s -makes it clear that Kevin Costner's plaintive, patient, slightly overlong Western was only sitting for a spell to race toward the finish.

Just about everything in this movie has its antecedent: a little bit of Shane here, a chunk of High Noon there, and so on. And yet it's all rather pleasing, in a regressive sort of way.

An unbelievable old-fashioned western...
August 21, 2003
A flawed but highly entertaining B Western blown up to John Ford scale.

Charley's crusty assessment of events -- 'Nothing that's been happening in this town is much of a surprise' -- is all too knowingly accurate.

Handsomely mounted, as you would expect, Open Range has a good deal to commend it.

Some killing, but most violence is PG-13.
