Stranded

Odd why this movie was released with the title "Doc Holliday's Revenge" if it is actually titled "Stranded". Regardless, I stumbled upon a copy of the movie with the title "Doc Holliday's Revenge", and opted to sit down and watch it, on account of it being a movie that I had never seen, much less even heard about.

Writer Rolfe Kanefsky put together a script and storyline that proved to be rather anti-climatic and it was somewhat of a struggle to actually sit through the ordeal. The narrative was just too simplistic and lacked entertaining elements. It felt sluggish and amateurish. And I have to say that I was definitely not impressed with what I sat through here.

A lot of the dialogue in the movie was pretty atrocious to listen to, especially since it was so forced and staggering. At times I felt like the dialogue must have been conceived by a middle-schooler.

The cast ensemble in the movie was small, and the actors and actresses didn't really have much to work with in terms of narrative, characters and dialogue. So they were fighting an uphill battle to stay afloat. I was only familiar with William McNamara, Eric Roberts and Tom Berenger. And I have to say that I don't understand why they shot all of Tom Berenger's scenes and dialogue the way they did; it was just laughably bad and a struggle to sit through.

Perhaps diehard Western fans can find something to be worked up about here, maybe the fact that it was dealing with the aftermath of the Earp shooting, who knows? But for a casual viewer, and one that is not overly much a fan of Western movies, then "Doc Holliday's Revenge" was not an impressive movie.

My rating of director David DeCoteau's 2014 movie "Doc Holliday's Revenge" lands on a three out of ten stars.

I have seen TV commercials with better actors! This is another movie I couldn't sit through. Between the paper thin actors and their badly timed attempts at dialogue, and scenes like Tom Berenger sitting at a judge's bench - obviously without a live audience, they show the cheapness of this film and guarantees that it definitely didn't go over-budget (undoubtedly a tiny one). We all get old, but Eric Roberts' choppers sound like they just came out of a glass, and Tom Berenger looks like he's ready to explode. The score was also cheap, and reminded me of 1970s TV. The director chose some shots that make me think he has about as much experience at this as a teenager directing an 8mm school project. Why either Tom Berenger OR Eric Roberts would ever choose to be in something this lame is beyond me. My theory is they owed one of their kids a favor and pulled a Ricky Ricardo. I give what I saw 2 stars, and that's being generous.

My wife picked this up at a redbox with a free code, and it wasn't worth the money. The writing was just atrocious, they didn't even try to get the dialogue to sound like it was anywhere near the 1880s. The acting was so bad I actually joked to my wife that it was the acting of a porn without the benefits, and come to think of it, the writing fits this description as well. As a whole, this movie looked like it was put together by a seventh grader during his free time. Not sure what they were thinking putting this out, but I'm sure the budget was so low that they'll end up making money on this thing even if they only sell 10 copies of it. Don't waste your time, it was so bad I didn't even get 10 minutes into it before we returned it.

"A judge can only go by the facts in hand and then he must use his best judgment." In 1882 after the shootout at the OK Corral the Clanton gang was not happy with the Earp's or Doc Holliday. Soon after the gunfight Morgan Earp was shot and killed but because of lack of witnesses the killer was never convicted and is free. Not a group to rest Wyatt Earp and his friend Doc Holliday have been canvasing the Tuscon area looking for the killer. Joseph (Voitila) and Elizabeth (Hayes) Cooley are staying at a logging camp when a wounded person shows up at their door. They attempt to help him but when Doc Holliday shows up things begin to change and no one knows who is in the right. There really isn't too much to say about this movie. This is yet another nearly unwatchable cheesy western with awful acting. The main star in this is Tom Berenger. He plays a judge that really has nothing to with the story other then to explain what is going on in a voice over. It may be because I think Tombstone is one of the best movies of all time and it's hard not to compare anybody's portrayal of Doc Holliday to Val Kilmer but this guy was bad. He was only in it for a few minutes though so that helped. This is nothing but a bad western that was really a struggle to get through. Overall, a movie that was really hard to watch and not laugh at. I give this a C-.

I love Western Movies..The story is very nice, the actors did a good job.
