"Guns Of The Magnificent Seven" (1969)
-George Kennedy, James Whitmore, Monte Markham Plot: IMDB A Mexican revolutionary hires an American gunslinger to organize the rescue of their leader from a brutal army prison. Phantom's Review: Third film in "M7" series. Not as good as the classic original, but nowhere near as bad as the fourth film ("The M7 Ride!") Western vet George Kennedy takes over the role of Chris from Yul Brynner and his version bears absolutely NO resemblance to the original, but despite this, I actually enjoy this film a lot. Familiar screen faces such as Jo Don Baker, Bernie Casey and Micheal Ansara (as the villain) populate the film. The plot is basic, but the acting is good and the action is plentiful. A solid, good sequel.

"Tall Man Riding" (1955) -Randolph Scott Plot: IMDB seeking revenge against ranch owner Tuck Ordway for publicly whipping him years earlier and breaking up his relationship with Ordway's daughter, cowboy Larry Madden plans to oust Ordway from his ranch by having his claim to the land declared invalid. Ordway's daughter Corinna, believing Madden to be the cause of the family's recent misfortunes, is unaware that the local saloon owner also has designs upon the Ordway holdings. Phantom's Review: Randolph Scott doing what he did best. Solid, well acted western adventure. Nothing too original, but plenty of action. I enjoyed it.

 You can't do much when the kids in your wife's family are literally begging you to accompany them to watch a film which you know you won't like one bit. They yelled and cheered and watched in awe at the ultra-loud and ultra-fast effects, while I had my ears covered for most of the time. Adding a story for the first time in the series, the film is actually semi-decent if you are looking for an entertainer. Don't know why Spielberg regards him so highly, but Shia LeBeouf can't act. Half of the time he looked bored, tired and out of place. The new girl, Rosie, was gorgeous eye-candy but can't act either. John Turturro, John Malkovich and Frances McDormand try their best, but that isn't enough. I can only pray they don't make another one. * *
