Editorial Review:
This time around, the Brat Packers (Emilio Estevez, Christian Slater, Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland) are on the run from the law and making a break for the border. Sutherland is yanked from his school-teaching job back East and extradited for trial, until he's liberated by the other members of the gang. There's a memorable scrap between Phillips and Slater, and a couple of pretty decent firefights, but all in all this is rather forgettable fare. It taps into the futility and camaraderie of classics like The Wild Bunch and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, but Sam Peckinpah or George Roy Hill it ain't. Jon Bon Jovi adds to the Rock-Stars-in-the-Old-West feel of this one, rife as it is with non-period dialogue and long, blowy hair. Still, fans of the original movie may find plenty to like in this sequel, even if it comes across as being a bit tired and turgid (notice there never was a Young Guns III). --Jerry Renshaw

Rating:  - Excellent Condition!
My DVD was in perfect condition. I placed my order with standard shipping and had my DVD within a couple of days! Can't beat that!!! Will definately buy my DVD's from Amazon always and will never be concerned about ordering used.
Rating: - Billy is the kidd of the West...
Starting with the story in the first movie it sets a great stage for this sequel. I have always enjoyed the mystery of William H. Bonne. He certainly made a spot for himself in history. Action packed and lots of gun fights to increase your adrenaline. Loved it. Hope you do as well.
Rating:  - Good Contemporary Western
Young Guns 2 is a great Western to watch for people who aren't necessarily Western fans. It's not a GREAT movie, per se, but it is very good, and it is a lot of fun. The cinematography is excellent, and the cast gives a spirited performance.
The scenery is breathtaking, and the action is exciting.
This is definitely a movie worth checking out - especially if you are a fan of any of the actors in it.
Rating: - Great Movie about Billy the Kid
If you're looking for a good gunslinger movie about some American History, this is a great choice. I've always thought it was a great movie, the dvd includes some good special features such as some history on the characters. I'd suggest buying the first Young Guns as well.
Rating:  - Good Western with some "but's"
This movie is a very nice Western which is not getting close to the first Young Gun movie even though nearly the complete cast is there again. Unfortunately has this movie a few length which I wasn't aware of when I saw it the very first time. Also it tries to be historical accurate which doesn't work that well with the rest of the plot. I wished that they would have taken a route like in the first Young Guns.
On the good side of things is the theme music by Bon Jovi which is really great ... Read More
