Great western entertainment.

We really enjoyed these movies. If you like westerns you will like them. If you like Kenny Rogers you will enjoy them too. They are as good as when they were made in the 80's. we sent to the U.S. for the dvd's as we couldn't get them in Australia. We have a dvd player that plays Zone 1 [U.S] as well as Zone 4[Aus]. Great family entertainment. Lots of action and fun. We want to get the other films in this series /I think there are 4 more. Lots of familiar faces in them too! You won't be dissapointed. Add them to your collection! August 12, 2005
