Texas Rangers Reviews
Bad film, worse casting
This film was a huge disappointment to me. The plot was fairly OK, but someone could have done much better in casting. Dylan McDermott overacted throughout the entire film and Usher Raymond seemed like a "token" to fill the racial quota. Ashton Kutcher either really is [not that bright] in real life, or he just enjoys playing one--I kept expecting him to say "Dude, where's my horse?". And then there was James Van Der Beek. I am so happy he was able to find styling gel in the wild west--his pretty-boy image made his character impossible to believe. If I were to believe that this character ended up COMMANDING this bunch, then I would expect said character to look older than 12.
The only shining performances in this film, were played by Robert Patrick and Randy Travis. I truly hope that poor Robert Patrick will someday get a role in a film where he is not the only redeeming quality--(think Striptease). He has to be the most underrated actor in show business. If you do see this, see it only for these two, because the rest of the actors in this film are completely forgettable.
Good idea, bad script, worse casting!
Well, I have to say that I'm pretty disappointed in this movie. I mean, the basic idea was good, and I'm sure someone could have made a decent movie out of it if they had 1) fired the writer and gotten a better script, and 2) done a better job casting actors who actually fit into this kind of movie. Dylan McDermott, Robert Patrick, James van der Beek, Rachael Leigh Cook - they are all good actors, but neither one of them (with the possible exception of Rachael) fits into a Western movie at all. Same goes for Ashton Kutcher, who is cute but should stick to teen comedies and the likes!!! I am absolutely convinced that a better script and different actors could have made this movie into a hit!!!
The way it is now, though, the story is simply going nowhere ... actually, there isn't even a real story that runs from beginning to end ... instead, there's just many events thrown together with no connection (or explanation) whatsoever - I mean, the whole movie doesn't make any sense at all! After watching it, I still have no idea what is happening or why it is happening ... the only possible explanation I can find is that maybe they cut and re-cut this movie so many times that not even the director knew where the story was supposed to go anymore.
The only reason why I even finished watching the movie was that I kept thinking "There's got to be more ... this has got to get better 'cause it sure can't get any worse ..."! If you want to see this movie real bad for some reason then rent it or wait till they show it on TV - don't waste your money on buying it!!!
