I'm not exactly sure how many people actually like this film, but I for one think it's not half bad. While it is true that Bruce Willis isn't a very convincing Tom Mix, and the the film isn't overly exciting, James Garner does a great job as Wyatt Earp, and is reason enough alone to watch this. This movie sometimes gets mixed feelings, some hate it, some feel it's fair, and some like it. Give this a shot, especially if there isn't anything else on, you might like it.
