How is this not a western?
26 June 2012
Look, I get that some people have never seen what small town Arizona is really like, but my home town is hardly a step above this film. Saying this movie isn't a "Western" is a misnomer, IMO. It's set in Sedona, AZ which is a smaller community. Just because John Wayne isn't there to shoot all the bad guys and never die shouldn't take away the quality western movie effect. There are no shoot outs, no "bad" guys - though Jim Ed Love is quite the sleaze. Overall, it's a good movie. The old Roan is a great character and Ben and Howdy take the cake. It's amusing, clean, and just a fun family film. I've been looking all over to find a DVD of this since I saw it on my mother's BETA machine.
