A good film however it is overrated
19 January 2014
As The Outlaw Josey Wales, Clint Eastwood is ideal as a wary, fast drawing loner, akin to the "Man with no name" from his European westerns. But unlike that other mythic outlaw, Josey Wales has a name and a heart. That heart opens up as the action unfolds. After avenging his family's brutal murder, Wales is pursued by a pack of killers. He prefers to travel alone, but ragtag outcasts are drawn to him and Wales can't bring himself to leave them unprotected. The Outlaw Josey Wales was released in 1976 and it stars Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke & John Vernon. In my opinion this is no where near one of Eastwood's best films, don't get me wrong it is a good film but Eastwood has had much better for example, Dirty Harry, True Crime, Magnum Force, Coogan's Bluff and The Enforcer.

***/***** Good but overrated
