Tombstone is one of those films that you can easily pick apart technically. However I still love the film and grew up with a passion for it. I'm not saying that the film is by any means bad and that I just have a soft spot for it. I'm saying that the film does have it's flaws but they should be overlooked as the film is more about style than it is anything else.
The plot centers around the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday as they confront an evil gang known as the cowboys in the town of tombstone. It is a story that has been told many times (Including the other Wyatt Earp film of the same year), but none of the other films tell the story the same as the bloody film Tombstone.
The film features the best performance of Val Kilmer's career as well as a great performance byt Kurt Russell who had to step up and take over some of the directing duties.
Tombstone is a fun violent western with a lot of tension and a lot of fun. It is an entertaining film that is more than worth a watch.
