Stagecoach (1986)

Rate: 4
Viewed: 1/17

1/17: Four legends of country-western music get together to star in the remake of John Wayne's film entitled Stagecoach.

I'm sure Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson had lots of fun doing this. Let's be real: it's not a good movie. The acting is stiff. It's like watching an 80's episode of a 50's western TV sitcom. The story is average. Hardly much happens, and there's no sense of urgency to get things going.

Whoever did the makeup has done a piss-poor job. Elizabeth Ashley's spray-on tan is obvious. John Schneider, who played Bo Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard, stars. Also included is June Carter, Johnny Cash's wife.

All in all, although pointless, Stagecoach will do on a rainy Sunday afternoon, so you can fall asleep.
