    Texas Rangers




    A western...by genre but, I never got the feeling that is what I am watching. It seemed to"fluffy".

    This story is told from the forming of the "Rangers" aspect. While it tries to build backgrounds of the key individuals, it never really gets you in tuned with them. Most of what you see has been done before (story wise). And the acting isn't much better.

    I did however enjoy some of the cinematography. Also, I found myself laughing a few times (even at things that were not meant to be). A lot of shoot'em up action, not much else though. normally I don't use the stars but in this case I'll make an exception... :2:

    John, I hope that's not "out of 10".

        Having seen photos of the real Rangers, I can tell you what it does have is actors that are MUCH better looking than those original lawmen! Some of those ol' gunfighters were downright scary looking.

          David,

          I didn't mind renting this for one simple reason, the cost out of pocket was minimum being, it was through netflix. This (as all films) has a scene or moment if you will, that you say: "That was pretty cool!". However, they did not put enough of them together, to make an entire movie.

          The only tough looking "Ranger" was ( I can't recall the actor's name) the guy that play the T-2000 in "T2" . Whom was also, later, one of "Skully's" partners in the "X-files". He did okay, with his limited part.

          Lex,

          Uh....sorry! No T & A or sex on camera. :B

            I rented this awhile back. I love westerns and keep hoping for something new that's worthwhile, Texas Rangers wasn't one of them. I have to pretty much agree with John's assessment, but I'd go one less and give it one star.
