Tom Selleck plays Matthew Quigley, the cowboy hero in this traditional Western, set very untraditionally in Australia. After some macho silliness in the opening minutes, the story settles into a surprisingly evocative tale of Quigley, a sharpshooter who had come to the country to work for a land baron (Alan Rickman) and who is on the mend after a brutal attack. In the company of a woman (Laura San Giacomo) abused by that same baron, Quigley gets his strength and his shooting skills back while healing in the midst of aboriginal people as well as some stunning Australian settings. Director Simon Wincer (<I>Phar Lap</I>) brings a lot of integrity to this rare horse opera from contemporary Hollywood. <I>--Tom Keogh</I>

Two of My Favorite Stars.......2007-05-07
Classic Western in a new setting. The stoic cowboy and the damsel in distress Down Under. It is always a good evening when watching the interactions of the cowboy and the 'crazy lady'.
From the beginning when he rescues her and she 'latches onto him' as her protector, right to the end when she.... Well... that would be telling.
It has all the right mixtures, The Good Guy, The Surprisingly Tough Damsel, and The Overstated Evil Cattle Baron, all in the wilds of old Australia. Good Stuff!
I never thought this movie could be a Western was I Wrong this is a Western in a Far off Land........2007-03-11
Man I love it when the bad guys get it in the end, and they do in this movie. Tom Selleck plays a Great Hero in this movie.If you can handle some Brutal seens ,Blood and Shot'em up swearing, but in the content of this movie its done to bring its point across and does that.Hey Who Watchs Westerns in Todays World? I-still-do.Dont forget Open Range too!
Tom Selleck.......2007-02-12
A different kind of western! The story line is good and Tom Selleck his usual great self!
Quigley ... not a bad movie.......2007-02-06
It was sort of a Revisionist Western. It was set in the Colonial period of Australia . The best things were
* the cinematography of Australia's glorious landscape. Most of it shot around Alice Springs where I lived the a while.
* adequate performances from the 3 main characters ..Tom Selleck, Laura San Giacomo currently seen as Maya Gallo in TV show "Just Shoot Me", and Alan Rickman .... and it has dingo's too
"Quigley" is a reasonable action movie which revealed the truth of our shameful past.
