Why oh why do low budget director do this to themselves? I understand that sometimes a person doesn't have money and that doesn't stop them from wanting to make something to put their names on and that's fine. But why this? Why take already established characters that have been portrayed better in better movies and make something this bland with them? You've already doomed your film to failure unless you have one heck of a talent which writer and director Brett Bentman doesn't seem to have. Tombstone this is not. Derrick Redford is no Kurt Russell and Tom Zembrod as the leading man certainly can't live up to Val Kilmer. Again, better versions of these characters and stories already exist with better storytellers and actors and the low budget here doesn't help to elevate. The camera work is a little more advanced than you would expect from something with this budget but its probably the only positive aspect to be mentioned. Even if the creators had told an original story I doubt it would have been much given what this is, but at least we wouldn't have had anything else to compare it to. Skip this and watch Tombstone or any other movie featuring these characters instead.
