Young Guns II
Directed by Geoff Murphy
Samen met zijn oude makkers Doc en Chavez en drie nieuwe kompanen gaat Billy The Kid weer op pad. De tijden zijn echter veranderd en de boeren en grootgrondbezitters laten de macht van het geld spreken en trachten hun economische positie te bestendigen door schijnbaar fatsoen en politieke invloed. In dat wereldbeeld is er geen plaats voor avonturiers zoals Billy The Kid en zijn Regulatorbende.

Young Guns II Ratings & Reviews
- Kevin James25 oktober 2025This movie needed Paul Blart as one of the Regulators.
- petermatt814 maart 2026Exciting Western with a great soundtrack.
- s1178415 december 2025Loved it!
- Jacob O’Neal1 juli 2025The first rule in Hollywood since the 70’s: if the movie turns a profit then we need a sequel. I remember when they used to think sequels were shameful and devoid of creativity. Although I am not a fan of every sequel in a given franchise, I can appreciate when a sequel tries to keep things fresh. Young Guns II tried to do just that. In the early to mid part of the 20th century an old man claimed to be Billy the Kid, stating that Pat Garrett never killed him, that it was someone else. He claims he’d been living under an assumed name since then and still never left New Mexico. The sequel takes that idea and starts with Emilio Estevez in some rather convincing old man make up taking to a young Bradley Witford about the events leading up to that fateful day when people believed he died. It was an interesting way to play the story and leave it open for more sequels, likely without much of the original cast. But there are always new young stars in Hollywood. In fact, this time they got Christian Slater and Casey Siemazko of one of the greatest high school movies ever - Three O’Clock High. Directing duties this time went the director the Emilio Estevez/Mick Jagger stinker Freejack. Here’s the cool thing about the movie - I didn’t fall into the trappings many sequels do, where they take what worked and do it again but a little bigger and it’s set in a different location. They didn’t try to re-invent the wheel with this sequel, but they did take worked and made it even better, not bigger. Sure, you have a cameo from Jon Bon Jovi and William Peterson took over the role of Pat Garrett when it was someone else the first time. But Bon Jovi’s song, Blaze Of Glory, was perfect for the movie and William Peterson is a great actor and killed it in the role. Is this a perfect sequel? No. It’s not Empire Strikes Back, T2 or Godfather 2 even. This is fun popcorn movie that improves on the first one in many ways that plays with true claims that we’re all but forgotten about before 1990 when this movie hit theaters.
- Mister Arn22 mei 2025This movie has all the pieces, great actors, beautiful scenery, and a good story, but they are never combined into a cohesive picture. It's watchable, but it never lives up to its potential. The best thing about the movie is the song "Blaze of Glory." Bon Jovi nominated it for an Academy Award and specially wrote it for Young Guns II.
