Wyatt Earp [Blu-ray]

Product Description

WYATT EARP - Blu-Ray Movie

Some scenes have as much impact as stalker movies; you're just waiting for someone to get knocked off. Best is the first half, with Costner, as hip as he was in his Silverado days, going through a series of ups and downs until he accidentally finds his profession. Recommended to fans of the star and the genre, but the story never justifies its length. This massive, in-depth study of the dark Western icon comes off with mixed results. As Earp, Kevin Costner is not afraid to look rumpled and play colorlessly (as in The Bodyguard), but it saps the energy of this 3-hour-plus film. Trying to capture the whole life, (warts and all) of the lawman-criminal-brother-fortune hunter, director Lawrence Kasdan gains points for sheer scale, giving us a rich epic painted in dark colors with gritty settings. --Doug Thomas But the visual poetry and extensive foreshadowing ruin the dramatic drive. Great set design (Ida Random) utilizes dozens of similar settings that always look distinctive. The only relief is Dennis Quaid as a droll Doc Holiday, a much more engaging character. New faces Linden Ashby and Joanna Going (as an Earp brother and a lover, respectively) are solid finds, though the remainder of the female cast is barely given anything to do.
