Mi Amigo [Import]

Doesn't even deserve 1 star. Boring, no plot. When the cowboys return after 30 years, they are completely different actors that don't even resemble the ones that left. So low-budget they couldn't even hire a make-up person?? JUST AWFUL.

The front cover suggests that this will be a high-action western. Instead, it moves slow and has much fake fighting and tedious antagonisms. The back cover shows the sexy torso of a semi-nude man. However, this film has a flash of female nudity and no male nudity. Finally, though the covers show young people, this film is really about middle-aged, graying cowboys. This movie is for the "Space Cowboy" crowd, rather than the "Quick and Dead" crowd. Beware when renting or viewing this work.

I love Josh Holloway, and if anybody was ever born to play an Old West cowboy, it's him. So I settle in to feast my eyes for 90 minutes and instead I can barely force myself to watch the whole thing. First of all it's not Old West, it's modern day Texas, and Josh Holloway is only in the beginning. It very quickly flash forwards to the "present" when they are supposed to be 30 years older - one looks about 50, the other one has to be 70. The plot is totally non-existant - WHO WRITES THIS STUFF AND WHO THINKS IT'S A GREAT IDEA TO ACTUALLY WASTE MONEY MAKING IT? The two guys break up their frienship because one goes swimming with the other one's girl (huh?) and one goes to Nashville to become a star and the other one (Josh) goes to Hollywood to become a big Western star (really? in 1989?), all off-screen thank God. Then they come back to their little Texas hometown and make up. It is absolutely painful to watch. If this was made in 2006 Josh Holloway was already well known from Lost - how could he be involved in somthing like this? I'm guessing it was made before Lost and only released later. If you're thinking you'll see much of Josh you'll be very disappointed. Even if you don't know who Josh Holloway is and just expect to see a decent movie you'll be very disappointed! Unbelievably bad.
