Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
hpcychpcyc I really enjoy watching old movies/TV shows like this. They're cheesy and it's very easy for us to poke fun at the melodrama and obvious twists, but they're a throwback to when people weren't so critical of entertainment and just enjoyed seeing moving pictures, cowboys, Indians and a very clear good vs bad story. There was no anti-hero. No muddied waters. Good was good. Bad was ham-fistedly bad. And the day was always saved. The acting isn't great, but fits well with the melodramatic feel of the movie. I haven't seen a lot of the 1950's Lone Ranger TV show, but I was surprised at how little the Lone Ranger was used. He is a very one-dimensional character and all the development he ever gets is the opening credits where we hear about how he became the Lone Ranger and that He rides for justice. Maybe it's a good thing that he didn't have a lot of screen time, because you can't do a lot with that character. Instead, Tonto and other more dimensional side characters get more screen time. The movie deserves props for trying to handle a story line that deals a bit with racial relations between the Native Americans and the white man. It's a bit clumsy and wouldn't pass muster today, but it's cool to see such a story in 1958.
LeonLouisRicci A fitting and bravura end to the team of Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels as the West's most exciting vigilante team (Zorro worked alone). From the initial concept, the coupling of a White Man and an Indian as faithful companions set the stage for a coming together of the races and respect for the Native American.This Lone Ranger movie takes it to the logical and presents a story here that is provocative and ahead of its time, especially for the impressionable youth market. This cannot be overstated. Our Heroes are just that. They have a quality that is remarkable, commendable, and a Mythos that will endure forever.This movie is a wonderful experience. A colorful, action filled, Western that has an elevated script, some penetrating violence, and characters that are believable, with a depth of behavior found only in the better Westerns of the time. This final outing retires the beloved duo and is quite an accomplishment from all involved. This can proudly be revisited by generations to come as the Lone Ranger rides again and can exemplify the "better Angels of our nature" for all ages.
Neil Welch As an older person, much childhood enjoyment was derived from the opening fanfare of the William Tell Overture heralding the monochrome appearance of the masked man and his Indian sidekick on the 9 inch cathode ray tube housed in the huge piece of furniture hogging the corner of the living room. The grey-clad vigilante in the black mask was my hero.I saw this film at the cinema when I was 6, but I remember nothing other than the shock of discovering that the Lone Ranger wore blue, not grey.And now it turns up on DVD. The noticeably low production values are, nonetheless, higher than those for the TV series. And despite a budget which is clearly somewhat meagre, the film is made with care. It looks good, it is well written, and it is well acted.And, by heck, it brought back some memories, Kemo Sabe!
Mike Newton While I recall seeing the original Lone Ranger feature in 1956, I didn't see the second film, Lone Ranger and the City of Gold, until later on television. At the time of its release, I was in junior high school and had somewhat outgrown cowboy movies. However, when I did see it, I was astonished to see how violent it was as compared to the television version. First of all, you had Noreen Nash throwing a tomahawk into the back of Douglas Kennedy, who was running out on her. You may have seen that on television, but never on a show that featured a juvenile hero like the Lone Ranger. Also there is a scene, as depicted in the trailer on line, where the Lone Ranger turns and shoots a outlaw about ready to shoot him in the back. Ordinarily he (the Ranger) would have shot to wound, but not this time. The heavy takes a high dive off the roof. Tonto, although wounded, throws a knife right into the chest of an outlaw about to shoot the Ranger from ambush. It's true that the film helped to explain racial tolerance using a Indian doctor, posing as a white man, at a time when it would not have been feasible to take a stand against black and white relations, particularly since the film would have to be shown in the South. But these scenes of violence made one wonder where the censors were as far as protecting the image of the Lone Ranger. It was a very good film for its time and genre.
