• Scene Access

This movie is from a Billy the Kid 20 movie boxset that was given to me. It was released by Mill Creek Entertainment. So right from the start I was expecting the quality to really be hit and miss. In the case of this movie. It is watchable... but it doesn't look very good at all. there was a lot of dust and scratches in the film. And it was as if the brightness was turned up too far. So much in fact that in some scenes the faces and such almost blended in with the boulders and such in the background. There was also a slightly jumpy scene or two here and there. As for the movie itself... not bad. But I definitely seen better. I got a kick out of the character Fuzzy... who was obviously there for a little comedic relief. Early on in the movie he helped Billy to escape by using a sling shot to make a sheriff drop his gun. I may be remembering wrong... but I thought Billy the Kid was always an outlaw? In this movie (possibly this entire boxset as they seem to be somewhat related to each other) Billy the Kid is a wanted man... but he is innocent. And he is working to clear his name. Helping people as he does. Almost sounds like a TV series idea to me.

Watched: 2nd. Oct 2011
My Thoughts: The final part of the prequel trilogy. I enjoyed this a lot more than the earlier 2. In this they really set up the original trilogy with the 4 births - The Empire, Darth Vader, Luke and Leia.

My Rating: I found this to be enjoyable and so a 4
