Young Guns Ratings & Reviews
- Steven Anderson18 februari 2026Always going to be one of the top movies of all time
- Kevin James23 oktober 2025It's not Paul Blart: Mall Cop, but it was pretty good.
- Das_Lama4 juli 2025Great movie. IMO the only good "recent" westerns were Young Guns in 1988 and The Unforgiven in 1992.
- Víctor Meza30 augustus 2025Excellent!
- Mister Arn19 mei 2025Emilio Estevez plays Billy the Kid as a crazy adrenaline junkie using Tunstall death as a reason for action. He is only good for driving the action, not that magic that makes a good western. The film attempts to build some of that magic with the others, such as when Doc Scurlock saves the girl who is sold into slavery. However, it's Billy who makes everything happen, and he is a tornado that destroys everything in his path. Good westerns are about the people with action to sharpen the focus.
- Jacob O’Neal1 juli 2025In the late 80’s westerns were out of favor. Not long before, we saw Pale Rider and few others not exactly light up the box office. So Young Guns was not expected to do all that well, other than the bankable stars in Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland and Lou Diamond Phillips. Each had some box office clout after stuff like Breakfast Club, Major League, The Lost Boys and La Bamba. But would that be enough? Somehow Christian Cain, father of Dean Cain, found a way with his reverential yet modern take on westerns. The story was simple - tell the story of the early days of Billy the Kid and the Regulators, rising in infamy the whole way. The movie was well constructed, if not a little paint by numbers, but the acting and directing made up for it. Between greats like Terrence Stamp and Terry O’Quinn to younger talent like Dermot Mulroney, the movie moves quickly, has some fun moments of levity and some great gun fights. What more could you want from a pulpy popcorn western? They weren’t trying to make Unforgiven after all.
- The Movie Hater3 mei 2025This was a terrible movie. I did not enjoy this at all.
