wyatt earp details thirty-five years in the life of same from around 1865 to 1900 .
|
|
after seeing the movie speed twice recently , i kept thinking that i was seeing wyatt's life pass before my eyes in real time .
|
|
this movie was boring , slow , boring , and slow .
|
|
there were a few scenes that tried to be great scenes that tried too hard and just fell flat .
|
|
the script happily woman-bashes but also tries to sound like an 80s movie .
|
|
they cannot have it both ways .
|
|
" i now pronounce you husband and wife . "
|
|
sure , they said that in the 1800s .
|
|
" entrepreneur . "
|
|
sure .
|
|
every bit of male-ego-stroking dialogue that wyatt's third wife speaks to him made me sick to listen to it .
|
|
" oh , the script was written by two men ? "
|
|
" no kidding ! "
|
|
the movie is torture to sit through .
|
|
the scenery is boring .
|
|
the fades were either awkward or cliche or to self important .
|
|
can you say poor editing ?
|
|
everyone looks ugly in this movie .
|
|
when you shoot people from under their chins , they look like they have double chins .
|
|
kevin costner has never looked worse .
|
|
he should sue .
|
|
he looks like he gained the 43 pounds that dennis quaid lost .
|
|
dennis quaid is marvelous .
|
|
if you have to see this movie just for his performance , go into the theatre at the movie's halfway mark .
|
|
doc holliday ( quaid's character ) shows up at about the 90-minute mark .
|
|
gene hackman is very good .
|
|
is he in the credits ?
|
|
i don't remember seeing his name .
|
|
mare winningham makes the best of a small role as wyatt's second wife .
|
|
annabeth gish is good as wyatt's first wife .
|
|
i though that jamie gertz played wyatt's third wife , but i later heard that her name is joanna going .
|
|
she looks great but her dialogue sucks .
|
|
she also seems way to young for costner .
|
|
costner seems way to old for 90% of this movie .
|
|
in his first scene he is supposed to be about 19 years old .
|
|
yeah , right .
|
|
catherine o'hara and jobeth williams are always good and totally wasted here .
|
|
this is the worst movie that i have seen in years .
|
|
the last action hero was better that this .
|
|
go see maverick if you want to see a western .
|
|
bullets for dennis quaid's performance only .
