Not bad, but not great. I don't remember it too well.

A film with many layers, paralleling the main character's death with that of the old west, the western genre, and most poignantly, John Wayne himself. Its rich sense of period, littered with encroaching technology (the telephone, the car, running water), is one of its most admirable qualities. Unfortunately it's a little flat and tedious.

Fun whether you like John Wayne or hate him, though for different reasons. It's a last hurrah and clearly idolizes him but there's also no lack of criticism of the character he created. Pretty nice ending too.

On of John Wayne's best later performances. Fine direction and a good supporting cast.

John Wayne (an actor to be honest I have no great love for) gives one final brilliant showing. I've watched many Wayne films as my Dad is a huge fan of his, and I have to say this is by far my favourite. Touching and heartfelt, and it has to be said, a fitting end to Wayne's legacy, fan or not.

A movie about a dying man told by a dying actor in a dying genre, with great performances all around. I just wish it wasn't so damn predictable throughout, and made a deeper point at some point during its runtime. Wayne going out in a final blaze of glory is just too easy.

An unlikely winner. Lauren Bacall and John Wayne steal the show with a little help from a young Ron Howard. Touching and genuine portrait of a faded gun-slinger. Underplayed and convincing this is lovingly shot with a real sincerity that runs through it. Not a typical John Wayne film, but probably my favourite.

John Wayne's finest role in his last movie. It summs up both the lure of the western, and its death as a genre in modern times.
