The Last Cowboy

6.9 stars.

Not a bad film in and of itself, but I seen much better westerns in my time. First thing, in the first scenes it sets itself up to look like a western, no cars, no electricity, nothing modern is seen for several minutes. They are burying grandpa, and everyone shows up on horseback and wagons, including a woman (played by Garth) who is estranged from her daddy (Henriksen) now going on 8 years. She has a lot of things to say to her daddy and his first hand (Gainey) and she brought along a man that has been her friend for years (Cooper). I am surprised to see Bradley Cooper in one of his earliest major roles, and it's a Hallmark movie no less! Well, he has a two bit part, it's not much of a character really. This film is just not much more than a B rated modern western, and there isn't much depth to it unfortunately. I've always loved Jennie Garth all the way back to 90210, when she was my favorite for a while.
