Console best movie i've ever seen.

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

juarezal YES they were BILL HICKMAN was the Leader of these men, who would go out and KILL the unbeliever's and the trouble makers for the LDS CHURCH. PORTER ROCKWELL was arrested for the attempted KILLING of GOV. LILAN BOGGS. the leaders of the LDS CHURCH were men who wanted riches from its congregations. SMITH believed in MULITPLE MARRIAGES and YOUNG loved the POWER he had over the state NOTHING was done w/o his PERMISSION. PORTER ROCKWELL was the last of the Avenging Angels. He did not think twice about killing INDIANS OR WHITE MEN he would always say "IT'S AS EASY AS WHEAT". This movie gives a slight insight as to the MORMONS life. BUT MR. HESTON is no where near the iron fisted personality of the dictating PROPHET YOUNG. who said that is not a prophesying man. he would leave that to other MEN.

Chrieraux The movie is okay. It's not very accurate, but what do you expect from an old western staring Charlton Heston? Tom Berenger is good as a young member of the "Avenging Angels" learning about intrigue and scandal in his group. Kind of like Mission: Impossible, but in the West.James Coburn is excellent as Orin Porter Rockwell, an interesting enough character, they could have made the whole movie about him.Charlton Heston is Brigham Young....if you liked him as Moses, you'll like him here. If not, you won't.The basic plot of the movie is based on inaccuracies and exaggerations. There may or may not have been a group of "Avenging Angels" in early Utah. Whether there was or not, the group was not an official Church unit and neither murder, nor blood atonement, has been enforced or used by the Church at large.As long as you understand it's fictional, though, it's a decently interesting movie.

mdicera6120 It's amazing that in this day and age you can buy movies that date back to the 20's on DVD, but not this one. I can't seem to find this TV movie on DVD. I like Tom Berenger movies.I enjoyed his part in "Eddie And The Cruisers" and he was great in "Someone To Watch Over Me". I'm really disappointed that this movie was not made for DVD. I also have noticed that most video stores don't even carry it. Very few on line markets know about it, and on e-bay it's rated as very rare. It's a good movie full of action and romance. Great for both male , and female audiences. I would like to know if there are anymore more Berenger fans out there.

Dark Ages Well, I have another opinion. I don't like this movie at all. Actually, I rate it like 2 out of 10. Frankly, the only good about it was the Bad Boys trailer before the movie. It's make me compare Will Smith with this boring and stiff actor in Tom Berrenger. I think the story is complicated, I didn't know about the Mormons etc. Bad acting overall. Miles Utleys (Berrenger) drunken father does not look that old to be Utleys father in my book. Then we have this very sentimental ending with all the ....Yeah yeah, I will not appeal anything. I would not recommend this tragic movie to anyone else rather than the very greatest fans of Tom Berrenger. Don't waste your time watching this since the are so many other classic western out there.
