DVD Reviews of Quigley Down Under
DVD Review: Tom Selleck at his best.
Summary: 4 Stars
If you are a Tom Selleck fan you can't go wrong with this Western classic. Tom portrays Matthew Quigley, a dignified gunslinger who has grown weary of his sharpshooter reputation. While the plot is fairly simple it is rewarding to see Quigley do the right thing without a second thought. Such a charismatic role for Selleck. A good film for the entire family, as long as the kids are over 9 or 10. DVD Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
An Australian "cowboy movie"? It really works and Tom Selleck is wonderful in it!DVD Review: Just Call Me Roy

Quigley Down Under DVD
Quigley Down Under stars Tom Selleck as an expert sharpshooter hired in the 1860's by an Australian rancher (Alan Rickman) to "take care" of a problem Rickman was having with the aborigines. Also has Laura Ciacomo as a female co-star. Since Tom Selleck is one of my favorite actors (see The Shadow Riders, etc.) I thoroughly enjoyed the show. Alan Rickman is his typical evil self (see Die Hard)
The movie ends with an excellent example of a "show of force" and what that can accomplish. Highly recommended for fans of Tom Selleck, Alan Rickman, and Laura San Ciacomo. And also non-western, westerns.

If you like westerns this is the movie to watch. Tom Selleck makes a good western!!!!!DVD Review: A classic western - topsy turvey
Summary: 5 Stars
"This ain't no Winchester 74 and you aren't Jimmy Stewart" ... No, this is the Sharps 1874 and this is Tom Selleck... both great westerns where the rifle is as much a main character as the people and the vital supporting actor. Both are classic movies. What I really enjoy in Quigley is everything is upside down... where the good guys are the natives, the bad guys are the ranchers and cavalry, and the single shot buffalo gun is the equalizer... in the hands of a good shot.
The ending showdown is one of the greatest in westerns. For the first time viewer, let the moment flow... even in reruns it never gets old. The western lives on and the fight between good and evil .. in a foreign land ... is both timeless and universal... Wyoming is just a little north of Melbourne.
Description of Quigley Down Under
Tom Selleck plays Matthew Quigley, the cowboy hero in this traditional Western, set very untraditionally in Australia. After some macho silliness in the opening minutes, the story settles into a surprisingly evocative tale of Quigley, a sharpshooter who had come to the country to work for a land baron (Alan Rickman) and who is on the mend after a brutal attack. In the company of a woman (Laura San Giacomo) abused by that same baron, Quigley gets his strength and his shooting skills back while healing in the midst of aboriginal people as well as some stunning Australian settings. Director Simon Wincer (Phar Lap) brings a lot of integrity to this rare horse opera from contemporary Hollywood. --Tom KeoghGeneral DVDs
