Rating:  - After the Gunfight at the OK Corral
John Sturges' memorable follow-up to THE GUNFIGHT AT THE OK CORRAL with James Garner as Wyatt Earp and Jason Robards as Doc Holliday, Robert Ryan as Ike Clanton. Interesting to compare this film with the much later TOMBSTONE. Both are very good, yet still play alittle fast and loose with history. In reality Earp -- in the aftermath of his brothers being crippled and killed -- only killed four guys: Frank Stillwell the train station in Tuscon, Indian Charlie, Pete Spence and Curly Bill Brocious. ...

Rating: - Interesting look at Wyatt Earp post-OK Corral
Hour of the Gun is an excellent late 60s western that tries to take a more realistic look at two of the most famous western characters ever, Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. Following the gunfight at the OK Corral, the three Earp brothers and Holliday are acquitted for the murder of three Clanton gang members.

Rating: - Earp after the gunfight
HOUR OF THE GUN (1967) takes off where director John Sturges' earlier "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" (1957) left off. The movie opens with Wyatt Earp (James Garner) and Doc Holliday (Jason Robards) trading hot lead with the Ike Clanton (Robert Ryan) gang in the Tombstone corral, follows with an extended courtroom scenes in which Earp has to defend himself against charges of wrongful homicide, and concludes with the meat of the movie - the death and serious wounding of Earp's brothers by members of ...

Rating:  - Hour of the Gun
The film did not really take off or grip my attention. However it is interesting history, and ends like a classic western, with good performances- especially Robards, and a great atmospheric score by Jerry Goldsmith.
Rating: - Hour of the gun
Very well acted James Garner movie. Not the side that people are used to seeing of him. Jason Robards is also good as Doc Holiday. Not very historicly correct but good entertainment. Highly recommed for the western enthusist.
