 Open Range
Open Range Quote: Open Range is a 2003 American Western film co-starring, co-produced, and directed by Kevin Costner, based on the novel The Open Range Men by Lauran Paine. Starring alongside Costner are Robert Duvall, Annette Bening, and Michael Gambon.
The film received mostly positive reviews, and was a modest success at the box office, making about $58 million in the U.S. alone.

After Dances With Wolves, my favorite Kevin Costner movie. It's too slow for some people's tastes, but that seemed to only add to my enjoyment of it. Robert Duvall is an acting god and walks away with the movie, but Costner and Annette Bening are also good (Someone give Bening an Oscar! Don't pass her over again!). This is must-see viewing for any western fan. I rate it an A.

This is a very fine crafted movie with exceptional performances across the board. Kevin Costner shows what director he can be given the right material. I loved the innocent love story between him and Bening and the portrayal of the cattle drivers was very special. And what a hell of a showdown it was, after all the slow buildup this outburst of violence...Geniously. A-

This is was one of the best of 2003. and one of the best westerns. Kevin Costner showed some of the true talent that he showed in Dances with Wolves. I really don't know what else to say, except I really loved this movie.

I wanted to see this at the cinema, so i saw this the other day in the rental shop, but i was skeptical to get it, because it looked boring :???:

A magnificent western which is probably the best one since tombstone. costner and duvall are great, and the end shootout is awesome.
