| Movie MetropolisJames PlathI was completely caught up in this gritty Western. |
| User ReviewApostolos MGreat western! I watched it on someone else's recommendation. Very good choice. The only thing that would have made it better is if they had used the original cast from Lonesome Dove (Tommy L. Jones, Diane Lane, etc.). |
| User ReviewDean MThis is the best and favourite Larry McMurtry western movie than the original Lonesome Dove. James Garner made his magnificent performance as the role of Capt. Woodrow Call, and his final scene is at once heart breaking and resonating with strong quiet hope. A wonderful cast does memorable work, especially Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepard and Randy Quaid. In this film, pure of heart may not necessarily mean pure of deed, but at least evil is evil and good is good. It bravely balances the aformentioned violence with scenes of wry humour and gentleness. |

| User ReviewRoz IPretty long, it took me 2 days to watch it. Surprised most of the cast was older...Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepherd, James Gammon, James Garner. Couldn't believe Joey Garza was played by Angel Raphael from "Touched by An Angel." |
| User ReviewKevin SIn my view a good sequel to Lonesome Dove. The first half is slow, but the characters burn up the screen in the second half. Alexis Cruz, Sonia Braga, James Garner, Sissy Spacek, and Sam Shepard give great perfomances. |
| User ReviewGwen GDecided that I liked the original Lonesome Dove the best. It's not the same without Gus. |
| User ReviewDaniel ZNot nearly as good as the original Lonesome Dove. |
