Full Plot Details

Ellen, an unknown female gunslinger rides into a small, dingy and depressing prairie town with a secret as to her reason for showing up. Shortly after her arrival, a local preacher, Cort, is thrown through the saloon doors while townfolk are signing up for a gun competition. The pot is a huge sum of money and the only rule: that you follow the rules of the man that set up the contest, Herod. Herod is also the owner, leader, and "ruler" of the town. Seems he's arranged this little gun-show-off so that the preacher (who use to be an outlaw and rode with Herod) will have to fight again. Cort refuses to ever use a gun to kill again and Herod, acknowledging Cort as one of the best, is determined to alter this line of thinking ... even if it gets someone killed ...

Movie Reviews

7M Pictures - 9/10 by Kevin CarrSharon Stone misses the mark on this one.
Cinematter - 8/10 by Madeleine WilliamsSam Raimi's over-the-top homage/sendup of old westerns actually succeeds in making Sharon Stone a believable gunslinger.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Owen GleibermanThe plot of this low-camp revenge thriller is little more than an excuse to line up one badass cowboy (or girl) opposite another and let the eyeball-to-eyeball fireworks fly.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Desson ThomsonAlthough Stone may be pleasing to some eyes, she's pretty small in the saddle here -- just an innocuous gender twist on the reluctant cowboy hero. And her story of hellbent revenge is about as compelling as a 30-second fragrance commercial.
Movieline - 8/10 by Stephen FarberEven when the script for The Quick and the Dead runs out of surprises, which is very early, director Sam Raimi keeps the action fast and funny, though he falters when he strains for seriousness.
Combustible Celluloid - 8/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonRaimi's movie borrows heavily from classic spaghetti westerns, but Raimi has a style of his own, and plenty of it.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonMs. Stone's presence nicely underscores the genre-bending tactics of Sam Raimi, the cult director now doing his best to reinvent the B-movie in a spirit of self-referential glee. Mr. Raimi is limited by a sketch mentality, which means his jokes tend to be over long before his films end. But his tastes for visual mischief and crazy, ill-advised homage can still make for sly, sporadic fun.
Common Sense Media - 8/10 by Brian CostelloFrequent gun violence in quirky '90s Western.
Filmcritic.com - 8/10 by James BrundageThere should be a law that, if you're going to make a terribly clichéd film, then you at least have to do something original in it. The Quick and the Dead exemplifies this.
Empire - 6/10 by Andrew CollinsThis ankle-deep story has a cheekful of tongue, providing opportunities galore for hammy, quick-draw melodrama and the perfect vehicle for Ms. Stone.
