Summary: I Love this Movie!
Review: American Outlaws was a great movie! It did not, as most of you know, have a lot of historical accuracy, but that is not what you really concentrate on in this film. Some of the acting, by my opinion, was a little empty, but that was because of the writing for those particular roles. Colin Farrell and Scott Caan were amazing in this film. Colin played the role of Jesse James perfectly, and effortlessly. And, of course, he is amazing to look at! American Outlaws has become one of my favorite movies!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: You just have to have fun while you are watching this
Review: As long as you keep in mind that movie was DESIGNED to be funny and don't moan about things like historical contex you should have fun watching this movie. From what I have seen Colin Farrell had a fun time MAKING it (even if it didn't do that well at the box office)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Too many bad reviews for such a great movie!!!!!
Review: Don't do what the reviewers said about this film. THey said it was poorly made and things like that and tell you not to waste your time watching this. I didn't believe them so I watched it at the movies and I was amazed at this movie. The costumes are very cool and the sets are amazing. One set they used twice for two different cities. Ali Larter, Colin Farrell and the rest of the cast play magnificent roles. I would recomend this great movie to anyone because it makes you feel like a outlaw. This DVD is packed with loads of special features. A big two thumbs up with five stars. Go rent this movie tonight. You will not be dissapointed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not bad...Not bad at all
Review: American outlaws follows the legendary James Younger Gang, headed by the notorious Jesse James (Colin Farell). I like the movie itself because it doesn't just go into the shoot em' that many modern day westerns do. It shows the motivation and the reasoning behind the famous outlaw gang. The DVD edition is great because of the special features, it talks about each of the actors learning how to ride, spin guns and shoot. It's kind of fun just to watch and see what they do.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This movie is too low quality for television
Review: This HAD to have started out as a television project. Better acting could have come from auditions at my local high school. Believe me, this is one that Colin Farrell will wish his whole life he could forget. The budget must have been tiny, the director and writer must have not seen any westerns, and based their production on Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman!

For those of you that think it is a five star film, I pity you. You must be under the age of 30 and new to the western genre. Go rent some classic westerns, then watch this again. It stinks to high heaven. I'm embarrassed for the producers.

Ewwww!

Summary: Fun little western
Review: I thought this movie was very funny and also Colin Farrell was so great in it as Jesse James.The James brothers and Young brothers come back from war to find that the Pinkertons want to buy their farm from them.After the Pinkertons kill Jesse's mother then the James-Younger gang start to take money from the railroads for revenge.Their is some romance between Zee Mims and Jesse of course too.Overall this is a fun movie not to take too seriously just enjoy the ride it takes you on!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Totally Sexy Film
Review: If I had to use only one word to describe this film it would be SEXY. Not just because of the actors, but the humor, mixed in with great gunfighting moves too! The gunfighting, and horse riding is suprisingly real, and the dialogue funny and refreshing. Don't be put off because this seems like the same old tired story. Trust me they've put a new fresh spin on the old west that you won't be able to get enough of.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: *American Outlaws*
Review: I thought this movie was great! Okay so maybe it was the hott guys in the movie, but still what can I say? I wouldn't say the quality of the movie in general was the best, but it was pretty good!! And you have got to LOVE the eye candy =). It's a great action film that deserves credit, in my opinion.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Movie!
Review: I thought this movie was great! I saw it once and on that day I was so interested in the movie that I could recite everything that happened when the movie was over. I only do that when the movie is really great. And this film was how I saw it...GREAT! This movie was great because it was combined with Western action, comedy, and a little bit of romance. I hate romance but the connection between Colin Farrell (Jesse James) and Ali Larter (Zerelda) was adorable. I wish I was Jesse's wife because he is gorgoeus! I guess one reason I liked this movie was because of Colin's amazingly good looks. LOL! I highly recommend this movie to anyone. So grab a seat, get some popcorn, and watch an excellent movie, and I will tell you that you WILL be drooling over Jesse James! lol. :)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Completely unrealistic western
Review: I saw this movie because I'm a fan of Colin Farrel, and he does a decent job playing Jesse James, even if he does occasionally lapse into his thick Irish brogue. However, I was very disappointed in the movie as a whole. Jesse and his older brother Frank, join forces with three of the Younger brothers to fight against the railroad that is taking over farms in their native Missouri. After their farm is raided and their mother (played very broadly by Kathy Bates) is killed, they go on a rampage of bank robberies, stealing from the railroad to shut it down. The young actors are likeable enough in their roles, but the dialogue is not realistic at all and relies too heavily on weak humor during the bank robberies. I admitedly chuckled a few times, but more often groaned at the lack of realism. The gunfights are mildly interesting but again are too unrealistic. Finally, the beautiful Ali Larter is completely wrong as Jesse's love interest. She is much too comtemporary and seems lost in her role. A shame that all this talent is wasted. Fans of Colin Farrel would be better off getting "Tigerland" and western fans should check out "The Wild Bunch," which has some of the same elements as "American Outlaws."
