Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

merklekranz The story is very linear, and you've seen it all before. There are a few amusing incidents along the trail, and the acting by Scott Wilson, Kris Kristofferson, and David Huddleston is really pretty good. Some of Scott Wilson's religious ramblings seem strange and unnecessary. To keep things interesting, you have father-son relationship wrangling, beautiful scenery, and a very appropriate musical score. The movie moves slowly at times, but character development is above average, thanks to the deliberate pace. Despite a couple lapses in logic, the script is totally acceptable. What you wind up with is a fully developed, familiar story, that most viewers will enjoy. Recommended. - MERK

manhattoe Reading the comments here I expected a better movie.The plot is predictable as is the character "development", in particular the father-son relationship. For me, for example, it seems inappropriate that the father denies his son respect after he has beaten up a tough bounty-hunter, but is filled with pride after his offspring has hustled a horse on emeter upon an ascending hill-slope.The dialogues are flat, the action is mostly unconvincing. Kristofferson and Wilson do a good job, but they do not really throw themselves into this movie.All in all, I found the movie boring and, at some points, even ridiculous.Can anyone tell why a Philadelphia-bred lawyer has a punch worthy of a box champion (well, it is mentioned he learned that from his professor, an academic, not a boxer himself, I presume). Well, even if we let that pass, why then can Adams Junior ride a horse like a prairie "indian", sharp-shoot in full gallop, and even draw faster than a die-hard criminal. Well, maybe I wasted my time on the wrong university ...I know this a TV movie, not a big cinema production. Anyway, only 4 stars out of 10.

latsblaster "The Tracker" is just an old TV-movie from the 1980's you might think, but thanks to Kevin Jarre's well-written story the film works very well, better than most modern action-oriented Westerns. But the film has also Kris Kristofferson in the main role, and he is suitable as Noble Adams. I think Kristofferson clearly shows that he handles his role very well, and one of the main reasons why the film works the way it does.Thanks to very few flaws in the script, this Western works very well. Even if "The Tracker" could be better and would fit nice as a movie for the cinema, it is highly recommended for any fan of the Western-genre.Rating: 6+ of 10.

barbell405 Kristofferson really put himself on the right track again with this film! After a few years of bombed films there is always one that brings you back and this wa it for him! If Kris made more westerns and stuck to his roots in the films he would be worth an Oscar!!!
