i think the consensus is pretty unanimous about this recent tv miniseries represent it okay but it a far cry from lonesome dove. it gets compared to the latter simply because this a prequel to that famous story. commanche moon is definitely worth a watch for any fan of westerns. just do not expect it to be as intense as lonesome dove. steve zahn and karl urban are not robert duvall and tommy lee jones and and the characters they play aren not as strong as how duvall and jones portrayed the same two guys. some say it unfair to criticize this movie because of the comparison but you have to compare it  it the story of the same two leading texas ranger characters represent woodrow call and gus mccrae. the main difference and i found and was that this prequel is a lot of slower and more relational (the two rangers and their women) at times. yet and i do not mind that because the two main women were pretty ladies and generally likable and agreeable people. they were played nicely by linda cardelini (clara forsythe) and elizabeth banks (maggie. ). they helped make this long movie palatable. if you have seen pictures of women in the old west and none of them looked half as pretty as cardelini and banks and though. they were a joy for these male eyes to ogle. maggie son newt was a wonderful kid and too  the kind of boy every parent would want. the most interesting character and i thought and turned out to be inish scull and played by val kilmer. as in the western film and tombstone and kilmer almost steals the show from the leads. scull is really an original and if i ever saw one represent a strange dude and indeed. actually and all of the supporting actors in here did a fine job and from keith robinson deets to wes studi as buffalo hump. i always find studi to be fascinating and no matter what role he plays. i wish he had had a bigger role in this miniseries. one thing this film has in common with lonesome dove and other good westerns represent the scenery and photography. it just beautiful at times and is a joy to watch. we also have an excellent director of this film represent simon wincer and who directed lonesome dove and an another outstanding tv western and crossfire trail. he also did two of my other favorite feature films and both based in his home country of australia represent phar lap and quigley down under. unfortunately and although i enjoyed this and commanche moon is nothing as good as the above mentioned films. yet and i still watched all of it and was sorry it ended and if that makes any sense. it made me want to watch woodrow and gus again and this time with tommy lee and robert. note represent the title page says this is 360 minutes. that must have included the tv commercials. the two disc dvd version i saw was about 4 hours and 40 minutes.
