Best movie ever

Rating: 10/10 (26 December 2006)

Why Val Kilmer did not get Oscar consideration for this movie I will never know. The Earp brothers, looking for a change of pace after their law protecting ways, head to Tombstone with their families for a new start. After a renegade group of ne'er do wells called the Cowboy try to exert their influence, the Earp's come out of retirement. Along with good friend, expert rifleman, Doc Holliday, the battle is on. Kurt Russell is at his squinty eyed best, but as mentioned, the true star is Kilmer. This movie would have been perfect, if not for a seemingly useless and tacked on love story involving Russell and Dana Delaney. All in all, great vehicle for Kilmer.
