Never seen it before. Re- enforces my opinion that he was a Terrible actor!!

Ain't been a single movie of his where I thought he was even ( marginally) good?

I know there are a lot of fans but,.. crazy

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I think Hondo was Al Bundy’s favorite movie.

Hondo is a good movie, but the book was better.

I really didnt care for him in early years but after watching the shootist and seeing he had filmed it while dying of cancer I gained total respect for the man. Rip in peace sir!

If you already felt he was a terrible actor, why waste your time watching one of his movies?

By far my favorite western movie actor. Mclintock, sons of Katie elder, Rio lobo, and Big Jake being my favorites.

The man had really good directors that built the scenes around his persona, so that he was never required to act. He was also always cast with fantastic supporting actors and actresses. My lack of respect for him as a man or as an actor doesn't keep me from enjoying many of his movies. Probably owes his fame and stardom to staying in Hollywood while others fought the war, but like they say about so many things, someone had to do it.

I think Hondo was a little off because of the leading lady. She she couldn't act herself out of a wet paper bag. Rio Grande with Maureen O'Hara and Ben Johnson. That's a movie.

The Searchers, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, The Quiet Man, Stagecoach, True Grit are some of his best, but they are all good.
