Editorial Review:
A sizzling, star-studded cast brings to life the legendary battle to deliver justice to TOMBSTONE! Kurt Russell (MIRACLE, VANILLA SKY) turns in a gripping performance as U.S. Marshall Wyatt Earp and Val Kilmer (THE MISSING, BATMAN FOREVER) ignites the screen as the outrageous Doc Holliday. Together, they team up to bring law to the lawless in a notorious showdown with the ruthless outlaws at the O.K. Corral! The all-star ensemble also includes Sam Elliott, Bill Paxton, Dana Delany, Jason Priestley, Michael Biehn, and long-time Hollywood favorite Charlton Heston. Get ready for an explosive, action-packed adventure the Wild West would never forget!
Description of Tombstone:
This Western has become a modest cult favorite since its release in 1993, when the film was met with mixed reviews but the performances of Kurt Russell (as Wyatt Earp) and especially Val Kilmer, for his memorably eccentric performance as the dying gunslinger Doc Holliday, garnered high praise. The movie opens with Wyatt Earp trying to put his violent past behind him, living happily in Tombstone with his brothers and the woman (Dana Delany) who puts his soul at ease. But a murderous gang called the Cowboys has burst on the scene, and Earp can't keep his gun belt off any longer. The plot sounds routine, and in many ways it is, but Western buffs won't mind a bit thanks to a fine cast and some well-handled action on the part of Rambo director George P. Cosmatos, who has yet to make a better film than this. --Jeff Shannon
Tombstone Reviews:
Tombstone DVD 
2009-12-19 - The order was received in a very quick manner. Fast shipping is usually one of my priorities and this seller complied. Thanks!
Best western in the past 20 years
2009-12-07 - Tombstone is a fantastic western with great characters, action, dialogue, cinematography and direction. Val Kilmer's performance in this movie was nothing short of amazing. I do not understand how he was not nominated or did not win a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for this role. Kurt Russel also gives a very solid performance as Wyatt Earp. This is one of my favorite westerns of all time but certainly it is the best to come out in the past 20 years. A Blu-Ray release would be awesome and is overdue.
Tombstone, The Director's Cut
2009-11-24 - If you think you liked the released version of Tombstone, you'll absolutely love The Director's cut. This DVD is a favortite in my hometown, but then maybe I'm a little biased......BTD, Tombstone, Arizona
Tombstone- The Director's Cut
2009-11-22 - Tombstone - The Director's Cut (Vista Series) This movie was a new movie. It played like same. The shipping time was short as usuall. This is one of my favorite movies. Kurt Russell's role as Wyatt Earp was great, ( he even looked like him) as a whole, however I didn't like the way he portrayed Waytt as a namby pamby before the gun fight at the ok coral. From what I have read the real Wyatt Earp was not that way. Val Kilmer's portrayal of Doc Holiday was right on, and he should have gotten the Oscar for that.
Tombstone
2009-11-21 - A great cowboy movie. I particularly liked the authentic wardrobe. I'd rate this in the top 5. Val Kilmer was awesome as Doc Holliday.
