"brats at their best"
4 stars

Totally unbelievable but fun fun fun

So you take the story of billy the kid, throw it away, but keep the name, and then put together the ultimate brat pack cast and make a western.

What do you know, it worked! This is one of my favourite brat pack films, and a great action "modern" western.

I mean, you just can't help but love:
"Dear Governor Axtell. I've heard that you will give 200 dollars for my head. Perhaps we should meet and talk. I am at the Juarez village at the border. Send 3 men, and instruct them not to shoot, as I am unarmed. In short, Sir; I surrender. Your obedient servant William H. Bonney. PS: I changed my mind. Kiss my ass!"

Go rent it.
