1/10
One of the worst, most pretentious Westerns I recall watching
16 January 2020
Sloppy direction by Philip Kaufman, substandard acting even by such outstanding actors as Cliff Robertson and Robert Duvall, shabby photography, and mediocre action sequences, plus a rambling script that makes no sense but claims to be the story of the Jesse James and Younger gangs.

Duvall embodies the unlikeliest Jesse James I have ever seen. Frank James, usually credited as the more balanced and intelligent of the two brothers, is portrayed by some unknown who only appears to utter grunts.

Waste of time, best avoided.
