Leave your thoughts about Tombstone.
| Washington PostRichard HarringtonHighly stylized fashion-wise but awkwardly unfocused in its plotlines, it aims for the western iconography of Sam Peckinpah and Sergio Leone but never gets past its own directorial hurdles. |
| 2UE That Movie ShowBlake HowardThe 'right hand' men are the reason we all keep going back to Tombstone. |
| IGNScott LoweTombstone is incredibly entertaining. While not entirely original and not always well executed, it manages to keep your attention for the entire 130-minute duration. And let's face it, Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday is what really sets it apart. |
| The A.V. ClubKeith PhippsTombstone remains a shamelessly entertaining movie, filled with lively turns from virtually every appropriate actor not working on the Costner version. |
| Needcoffee.comWidgett WallsExcellent western that's eminently rewatchable. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumThis has plenty of designer gore to go with its periodic spurts of bloodletting, and a lot of care and attention were obviously devoted to selecting locations, designing sets, and grooming handlebar mustaches. Much less attention went to making one believe that any of the events took place circa 1879, but at least the bursts of action keep coming, and most survive Cosmatos's addiction to smoldering close-ups. |
| Chicago TribuneMark CaroTombstone is a tough-talking but soft-hearted tale that is entertaining in a sprawling, old-fashioned manner. |
| Movie ViewsRyan CracknellOne of the finest Westerns to come along since the genre decided largely to pack up and ride into the sunset several decades ago. |
| VarietyEmanuel LevyA tough-talking but soft-hearted tale that is entertaining in a sprawling, old-fashioned manner. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanPlays like a three-hour rough cut that's been trimmed down to a slightly shorter rough cut. |
