Entertaining Western Yarn - Comanche Moon: Mini-Series review by CD
Having greatly enjoyed “Lonesome Dove” (also based on Larry McMurtry’s novels), Disc 1 was a little bit of a disappointment in comparison . The casting is not quite right for Augustus McRae, who in the novels is much wilier, more charming and taller than the character in this version. The film does have some entertaining moments however, particularly from Val Kilmer’s character, Captain Scull. The Comanche Braves and other outlaws add to the excitement, and the supporting cast, music score and scenery are all strong.
In Disc 2 the child actor
playing Newt is excellent and there are some beautiful landscape scenes. Steve Zahn gets a much better grip on Gus Mc Crea’s character and Karl Urban is a strong Woodrow Call.
