Description The saga of Tom Horn - a real-life "enforcer" of Old West days - held a particular fascination for another legend. Hollywood icon Steve McQueen starred in and executive-produced what would be his next-to-last movie, a gritty, exciting recreation of Horn's latter-day career in a turn-of-the-century West where gentler ways supplanted the law of the gun - and Horn would be an unwitting victim of that change. Linda Evans, Richard Farnsworth, Billy Green Bush and Slim Pickens head a strong cast in a film capturing the essence of a time when a man's word was only as good as his guns or fists. Shot on serenely beautiful Arizona locations, Tom Horn indelibly brings to life one of the West's truly unsung heroes.

Great movie August 2, 2008 A low-key Steve McQueen movie, but one of my favorites. A really great western. Kind of an old-timer adjusting to the new world, and not doing so well.
CUT AND EDITED DVD W/MISSING SCENES? ? WHAT GIVES? June 1, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Remembering what a great flick this was,I was about to buy this DVD, then saw the review that noted that several key scenes have been taken out to make it more family-oriented? This stinks! I recently also purchased a DVD of BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES from AMAZON and returned it after finding a key scene had been cut from the first 1/2 hour. What is the point of selling these DVDs if we can't get the original unedited uncut version??? As a minimum, AMAZON should note in BIG LETTERS in each ad if this is a CUT AND EDITED VERSION. That way, mnay of us will know not to buy it.
Tom Horn April 29, 2008 Based on the book 'I, Tom Horn', this movie is one of the best westerns I have ever seen. It is about the last of the frontier days, and the last true of the western scouts. Steve McQueen is perfect in this performance.
Great Story December 31, 2007 Steve McQueen, Richard Farnsworth, and Slim Pickens, who can you go wrong with a cast like this. There a several long reviews if you detail. I'll just say this is a very realistic movie about the west toward the end of the wild portion of the wild west. Beautifully filmed, well written story based on a real person. Even if you don't like westerns (and I don't know why that would be) this is good film. It's just that simple.
Great movie, however.................. May 9, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I loved this movie when it was released in the early eighties that I thought when I purchased this dvd, that is was going to be the same original, uncut movie I watched for the first time; not so! Don't get me wrong, I love Steve McQueen and have several of his movies on dvd, but Warner video cut out the fight scene at the start of the movie, as well as deleting other parts of the movie to make it more "family oriented" for the entire family to watch. That said, the rest of the movie is awesome, along with the beautiful photography which the film was shot in Wyoming. If you never watched this movie before, or don't remember the "details" of the movie when it was released, I highly recommend this second to the last movie Steve McQueen did prior to his premature departure from our lives!
