| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe current NRA spokesman Heston is just right for such a controversial part, and gives the western some firepower. |
| User ReviewAshley HArrowhead is an excellent film. It is about Ed Bannon who works for the US Army at Fort Clark, Texas. Charlton Heston and Jack Palance give amazing performances. The screenplay is well written. Charles Marquis Warren did a great job directing. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the action and adventure plus drama. |
| User ReviewPaul DWell acted by Jack Palance and Charlton Heston. It's struggle for the Indian survival and Jack Palance plays "the Messiah" for the Indians. However, the movie is really about two childhood rivalries that eventually have to settle the score with each other. |
| User ReviewTamsin PDespite the ostensive attempt to show a positive portrayal of Apaches, the way they're framed in the beginning, as a threat, a menace, an "other", does nothing to humanise them. |
