Historically Accurate? Who Cares?

Rating: Null/10 (25 May 2002)

I for one did not see this movie for historical significance. I also find it hard to believe that any account of Wyatt Earp is 100% accurate. I watched this film to be thrilled and entertained. This film, in my opinion, delivers all of the aspects that a western should. It was dramatic, it was raw, and you grow to care for the "good guys" and hate the "bad guys." Did I mention revenge? It has this as well. Not to mention what I consider to be Val Kilmer's best performance ever as the notably enigmatic Doc Holiday .. . even his name was cool! If you haven't seen it already, by all means rent it as soon as possible . . . you won't likely be disappointed.
