Yellow Rock

To me personally it was better than some other westerns I have seen. It was slow to start but it eventually caught up. I originally watched it because of Michael Biehn was in it. But I thought it was good enough to watch. I don't watch movies due to any historical value I watch for entertainment. I loved that the movie was based on part of the American Indian perspective. Would I watch this again? Yes I would watch it. I was in an old west class in high school and they had us read poems from the Indian point of view. What I had read saddened me and to watch this it brought it all back. Again, why only the one star? I think that some of the acting in the movie was really sub-par by a couple of the actresses but other than that it was not too bad.

An off beat western with occasional entertaining scenes.

"I don't give a damn about those Indians, all I care about is finding my brother and the boy." When Max Dietrich's (Russo) brother and son go missing he sets out to find them. When he gets to the town of Yellow Rock he hires Tom Hanner (Biehn) to guide him to where his brother is. After meeting up with a doctor and getting permission from the tribe's elders they set out on the path to find them. Against the wishes of the Indian guide with them they pass through a sacred burial ground. I'll save you the "western genre is dead" speech, but again this is another movie that isn't terrible but is a B-movie at best. The idea is neat and the cast actually has people that I've heard of but like most westerns lately this one is very slow moving and not really worth watching more then once. Little by little it seems like western movies are starting to get better, but at this pace it will have a full revival in the year 2067. Overall, not as bad as most of the new westerns that have been made and worth watching, but don't expect amazing. I give it a B-.

First of all do not believe anybody that rated this movie as good because they are for sure all related in some kind of way to somebody that was involved in making this piece of crap. There is absolutely nothing good to say about this western. I do like a good western every now and then but this is probably one of the worst I've ever seen. The story is incredibly weak, the dialogs are so lame you wonder how the guy that wrote this makes a living out of what he does. The actors are below average with some practically reading their script I think. The music and sound effects played during some scenes are also very badly chosen. I regret watching this movie so much, that's 90 minutes of my life I won't get back. Avoid at all costs...

I'm a huge western fan but the other 2 reviewers on this film are way off base...must be related biased basis to the production of the film. This film is just awful... you'd be far better off just watching an old episode of Roy Rogers. The acting and the script are both completely lacking of any substance and with half the budget and a camcorder anyone could have made a better western than this...don't waste your time. The story line needs work and in many places scene changes are completely disjointed. The actress playing the good doctor simply isn't believable in her role and her lines are lacking in reality. The bad guys are really the only semi-bright spot but there is absolutely no character development from that end either. The movie sets were extremely amateurish but the camera work and cinematography were at least somewhat up to standard for such a low budget film. Nevertheless, I absolutely can not recommend this film even to the most die-hard western fan.
