A parabolic sagebrush saga about this legendary figure in the Wild West.

Costner's still shouting, but it's hard to hear him from all the way back there in 1940.

Though handsome to look at (cinematography is by Owen Roizman), the movie is overlong, stately, and too detailed for its own good; director Kasdan claims his version if more accurate, which may be true, but it doesn't make for a good picture.

...hiding in this three-hour-plus extravaganza is a good two-hour movie. Too bad it's so hard to find.

"Tombstone" did it better, but

A great Western that was unfairly disparaged back in 1994. The authentic Wyatt Earp is actually a much-better film than the pulpier, more-popular Tombstone.
