Get ready for some horse-ridin’, gun-totin’, whiskey-drinkin’ fun in this digitally remastered collector’s edition of Lawrence Kasdan’s Siverado, featuring a never-before-seen featurette with interviews from the cast and the filmmakers! The spirited Western stars Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Kevin Costner, and Danny Glover as four unwitting heroes who cross paths on their journey to the sleepy townof Silverado. Little do they know the town where their family and friends reside has been taken over by a corrupt sheriff and a murderous posse. It’s up to the sharp-shooting foursome to save the day, but first they have to break each other out of jail, and learn who their real friends are. Thanks to its authentic look and spectacular cast, which also includes Rosanna Arquette, John Cleese, BrianDennehy, Jeff Goldblum, and Oscar(r)-winner Linda Hunt (1983 Best Supporting Actress, The Year of Living Dangerously), this exciting Old West adventure created a whole new generation of Western fans and earned its “modern classic” status.Director Lawrence Kasdan (The Big Chill) clearly set out to make an old-fashioned Western, but he couldn’t help bringing a hip, self-conscious attitude to the proceedings. Silverado thus finds its own funky tone–sometimes rousing, sometimes winking. Four cowpokes converge on a little Western burg called Silverado; they’re played by Kevin Kline (a distinctly modern kind of Western hero), Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, and the rowdy young Kevin Costner. Kasdan peppers the somewhat generic action with smart dialogue and a parade of quirky supporting players, including John Cleese as a sheriff who seems to have stepped straight from a Monty Python sketch into an Old West saloon. Bruce Broughton supplies the music, a real throwback to the glory days of thundering Western themes. One thing’s for sure: Silverado‘s a lot more fun than the later Kasdan-Costner Western, Wyatt Earp. –Robert HortonDirector Lawrence Kasdan (The Big Chill) clearly set out to make an old-fashioned Western, but he couldn’t help bringing a hip, self-conscious attitude to the proceedings.

this movie, as a western, is worse than a john wayne b movie from the 30′s.
other reviewers state that the ‘kasden brothers were paying homage to the traditional western genre’. no, no they weren’t. they were completely lost, and should be forgiven, or forgotten.
i can easily see that this movie is on a par with ed wood’s movies.
watching these reknowned actors (actresses) in this terrible movie begs the question: do any of them feel that this was a good movie still? or do they run for cover whenever this movie is mentioned?
this movie is worth watching because it is so very bad.

I think tnis movie sucks. The reason I think it sucks is because it boring, it did not catch my attention at all, and there were really no exiting parts in the movie that I like.If enybody were to ask me what I think about this movie I would tell them to save there money, or there time and not watch it.Personally I thought the scenes in the movie were quite not interesting.So really I think this movie sucks, and I wouldnt suggest this movie to enybody.I think they could make this movie better by changing everything.

Sadly, I was not all that impressed by this movie. The dialogue in this movie leaves much to be desired, and the overall feel of this movie is more along the lines of a made for TV movie. I have to admit that I’m not an avid Western movie watcher, but still, I’ve seen many that are much better than Silverado. I will never waste my time watching this movie again.
