| User ReviewFacebook UPrairie Fever has got to be the best of the three westerns starring Kevin Sorbo, because of its really good story, performances & gripping direction. truly top notch stuff. |
| User ReviewPete AOK hercules is no cowboy, and this movie telegraphs everything from start to finish. But if you are looking for something as an easy watch in the form of DR Quinn medicine woman you are ok. |
| User ReviewPenny TThis was a surprisingly decent movie. Not a cheesy as I expected. |
| User ReviewJon MAll the actresses did well in their roles. Sorbo and Henriksen not so much. Interesting twist on a western but the scenery and sets were unconvincing. Low budget to say the least. |
| User ReviewMichael RAn okay recent low budget western. Surprisingly endearing. |
| User ReviewDon SSorbo is not much of an actor in my eyes - he has no range and only one expression (like the character Derek Zoolander). The ladies are what make this western watchable. Sorbo is taking 3 oddball women to a train station in order to pay off his bar tab and damages from a fistfight. The ladies, played by Dominique Swain, Jillian Armenante, and Felicia Day, are joined on the journey by a fourth, Jamie Anne Allman. These women have more stones than the hero. Just worth a look. |
| User ReviewTommy BTerrible western which lacks flow, tension or a credible love interest. |
| User ReviewJacob PDon't be fooled by how it's advertised, this film provides little in western action and replaces it with head-shaking melodrama, sappy sentiment and bland humor. |
| User ReviewAdam UBad film. The cast is very weak, therefore the acting poor, and the story is so lame that it just isn't worth telling. What starts out like a western ends up with all the characters putting down their guns and hugging each other as soon as we reach the 70 minute mark. It was like "ooh look the story has to end in 10 minutes, we'd best stop being cut-throat bandits, make friends, and be on our way." Steer clear of this one. |
| User ReviewRichard CAlong with having just enough action to be considered an action film, all of the supporting characters have problems that, at the 50 minute mark, are problem free with no explanation. |
