CinePassion - 8/10 by Fernando F. CroceLess than 80 minutes but dozens of characterization brushstrokes
User Review - 10/10 by Erik GRandolph Scott comes to Sundown and says he's going to kill the top man in town. But he and everyone else in Sundown find out it's not that simple. It's 77 minutes long, and it has as much plot as a 140-minute movie today does without feeling rushed. Come to think of it, this is also kind of like The Searchers.
User Review - 10/10 by gary twell umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch...its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that both randolph scott n bart allison play good parts throguhout this movie..i also think that tate kimbrough is good as the bad guy throghout this movie...its a good 1950's movie 2 watch...i think that the director of this western/classics movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect thorughout this movie..i think that the fight scenes n the gun shoot outs are pretty kewl throguhout this movie,..its an enjoyable movie 2 watch
User Review - 8/10 by Russell GScotts on a mission of vengeance but nothing is as it seems in this western that plays like a noir. Plays like a mystery, the plot is pitch black in tone and the ambiguity of the characters makes this one fly by.
User Review - 8/10 by Daniel WNot your usual B-picture Western fare. What starts out as a seemingly simple revenge story involving Randolph Scott arriving in the town of Sundown in order to kill the man (John Carroll) who he believes had a hand in his wife's death, quickly unfolds revealing not only Scott's and Carroll's dark secret's but the entire town's as well. Another understated yet absolutely brilliant western from the team of star Randolph Scott and director Budd Boetticher.
User Review - 8/10 by Zoran SDecision at Sundown starts Randolph Scott as Bart Allison, a man who has just arrived in Sundown intent on getting revenge on Tate Kimbrough, a man which he believes is responsible for his wife's death. The film leads you to believe that it's a simple revenge flick but what unfolds is a the story of a man whose terrible past has left a void in his soul. He keeps looking for someone to blame for what has transgressed and in doing so helps a whole town to realize that they need to stand up fro what is right and take back their self-respect. Randolph Scott really gives a great performance in this film as Bart; he has an overwhelming screen presence and every line is delivered with emotion. A film that truly lives up to the "psychological western" label, as every character is multi-dimensional and fascinating dealing with their own past issues and/or present transgressions. Budd Boetticher must have really been a believer in eyes being the key into our souls, as his camera always seems to focusing on the actors eyes. One scene in particular where this struck me is when Ruby, the mistress of Tate Kimbrough, is arguing with him about his marriage. Kimbrough's arm even blocks half of her face in one shot, but her piercing eyes continue to hound. Really a beautifully realized film about the choices one makes and the internal demons which can haunt oneself. Another great film by the criminally under -appreciated Budd Boetticher.
User Review - 8/10 by Jason PUnexpected ending, thought provoking. A bit like High Noon, except Scott's character can't seem to get a grip on the reality of the situation, including how his actions have helped the townspeople. Instead of riding into the sunset in victory, he rides out in self-defeat. Reminds me a little of Lonely Are the Brave in its deconstruction of the traditional western.
User Review - 8/10 by John RThis was an incredibly captivating western that explored a surprising amount of character depth as well much larger themes: love and revenge, good and evil, right and wrong. Simply stated, this films offers more than your average western.
User Review - 8/10 by William WThis may not be as strong as other Scott/Boetticher Westerns, such as 'Buchanan Rides Alone' or 'The Tall T', but it's very strong, and would make a great double bill with 'High Noon'--another fine flick about someone being brave enough to stand against the tide of local cowardice, and get things done in cleaning up the town's garbage. This is very unique in that Scott's character, Bart Allison, is determined for revenge, three years in the making, for the bad guy seducing his wife (who ended up killing herself in disgrace). He seemed to think his wife had the moral fibre not to do that sort of thing willingly--unfortunately, the entire town, even his best friend, seems to know otherwise. A great look at the lengths some will go to right wrongs they come across in life. Allison's dismay at the community for allowing another wrong to happen, midway through the picture, is something that haunts and stays with you, long after the film concludes. I would have given this a higher rating, aside from an obvious, amateurish mistake that happens around ten minutes into the film, when one of the women talks, but an arm from one of the actors completely occludes her mouth, straight through her entire spiel. It's a minor thing, perhaps, but I'm very surprised no one caught it by the time it was released, especially a director of Boetticher's stature.
User Review - 6/10 by Greg TTypical 1950s western with a solid performance from Randolph Scott. I'm not a big fan of Scott but he genuinely seems to into the acting here more than some of his less than memorable performances. Sundown takes patience but is worth the time.
