Editorial Review:
A collection of Tom Selleck's greatest westerns including: Monte Walsh, Last Stand at Saber River and Crossfire Trail.
Tom Selleck Western Collection Reviews:
Westerns as westerns should be 
2009-10-30 - Tom Selleck has made a few westerns for TV and a couple for the Movie world. All have been entertaining, and enjoyable. There isn't much to say here except if you like westerns you will like this set. Good production, acting, writing.
Selleck brings much to the characters for everybody. Looks rough and tumble enough for the guys, but handsome enough for lady viewers. Enough story to keep you involved, and enough action to make you want to strap on a sixgun, and shoot a bad guy. And all without vulgarity, and nudity which,to me, is refreshing.
I recommend this set to any western fans ot those looking for a movie you can watch with your kids without cringing.
There is violence, but no intestines or brains splattered all over the place, and of course it is good guys vs. bad guys with no gray area as to which is which.
My viewpoint 
2009-10-29 - Two fairly traditional westerns and one very interesting look at the life of a cowboy.
Crossfire Trail and Last Stand at Sabre River are average western stories of good versus evil with the good guys triumphing in the end. These are the sort of films I loved as a teenager and I viewed these with some nostalgia.
Monte Walsh was different. It was a little sad and I found that Montes life as a cowboy uncomfortably paralleled my own life. I shed tears for him but liked this film immensely.
Great Value, Great Deal!
2009-10-21 - I am a Tom Selleck fan and a Western film fan. This collection has both for me, and it is a terrific value! Great product!
Selleck is Awesome
2009-08-17 - As an avid John Wayne Western fan, its refreshing to see the Selleck Western collection. Monte Walsh is just plane awesome and Selleck and Carradine make the movie a classic. What I enjoy most about these movies is that you don't have to run for the remote and shut it off just because your daughter or son come into the room. In fact, you WANT your kids to watch these movies. There is no bad or unnecessary language,,, I mean NONE, and of course, while there is some violence (as is the case in Westerns), its done with class and is not done to shock your sense of propriety. When the bad guy gets it,,, you say "yeah!." When a good guy gets it, or a child is hurt, or a woman is hurt, you sympathize! Awesome drama. These movies will endure and will serve that we were a civilized society, at least once.
Three Great Movies! (But not a 3 part continuation)
2009-07-30 - At first I bought this because I not only like Western's, (a recent fascination as I didn't as a child) I mainly got this because I loved "Quigley Down Under," which was absolutely great for a long range shooter like myself, but I've always enjoyed Tom Selleck shows and movies as he is very talented in whatever genre he acts in!
I must say I like him in Western's the most, the way he just sits back so seriously and takes such a serious scene and then turns around at the end with his wit will just leave you wanting more! I can't remember anything from this collection right now, but it's like the "Magnum" character in "Magnum P.I." series we all just loved and wished we could be when we got older.
His lines are delivered perfectly in everything I've seen, in any genre, and are either written exactly for him, or their lines most likely "addlibbed" by Mr. Selleck himself, one line the comes to mind is when he's talking to the British officer in Australia in Quigley Down Under, "well sir, seems like we already kicked the trash out of our country" with the classic "Selleck" look just before he lights up his cigarette leaving the British soldier speechless... I almost fell out of my chair as I was laughing so hard! Oh, I could go on and on quoting straight faced hilarious lines delivered in every one of his pictures or television shows, but I won't and I definitely don't want to ruin any movies for anyone, but for those who have watched him in other shows, you know what I mean.
Well, if your looking for three separate Western movies and not a series with part 1, 2 & 3, then this is the set for you, you can see how he plays each part as a different character but still has that Selleck wit and flare we have all grown to love over the years! IMHO!!!
