Editorial Review:
Tom Selleck rides into Western adventure in grand gritty style as Paul Cable in Last Stand at Saber River from the novel Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty Out of SightRunning Time: 93 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC. UPC: 053939676723
Tom Selleck shows a harder side of his persona as a disillusioned Confederate who returns home in the waning days of the Civil War in this adaptation of the Elmore Leonard novel. His wife, Suzy Amis, isn't ready to forgive him for leaving his family behind for the "adventure" of war, and his children hardly remember him. Haunted by his actions in the war and caught in a power struggle in the Arizona territory, Selleck's soul-scarred survivor makes a last stand to protect the only thing left that matters to him--his homestead and his family. The film has its share of gunfights, showdowns, conspiracies, and Civil War rivalries, and even a runaway stagecoach, but its power lies in the somber exploration of how misunderstandings and conflicts tear at a marriage during such a volatile time, when ideals are set against duty to family. Director Dick Lowry's lean style makes the most of the gorgeous landscapes, and he creates a strong dramatic tension in the bubbling undercurrent between Selleck, who leaves behind the jovial character of his Louis L'Amour Westerns for a man hardened and embittered by war, and Amis, an excellent actress who brings to life a woman who shoots, speaks her mind, and harbors resentment just as well as any brooding male hero. Keith and David Carradine costar as Union wranglers who hold a grudge against the Confederate veteran. One of the most mature TV Westerns ever made. --Sean Axmaker

A great movie. For anyone who loves the old west. This movie is great quality and very entertining
Rating:  - Good Western that Gets the Gun Stuff Right
Selleck and the rest of the players clearly had a good time filming this entertaining western. The chemistry is much like John Wayne's friends and family productions. They even bond as friends on screen after the hero (Cable) and his wife kill numerous friends and associates of the Carradine brothers. David Carradine's daughter tries to seduce him to undermine his marriage, and, when she is rejected, gains respect for him, if not a crush. To be fair, pretending to hate Tom Selleck would present ... Read More
Rating:  - Selleck & Western, OK.
I enjoy a western and I like Tom, usually a good combination. I wasn't disappointed in this one. Entertaining and that works for me.
