I will not lie i am not a western fan, or at least i wasn't a western fan. I approached this film with a great deal of apprehensiveness. it is however a truely astonishing film, in my opinion it is one of the most underated films ever! Val Kilmer puts in a fine performance as the dieing but quick witted and fast handed Doc Holliday, this is a character you cant help but love to watch, he in many ways steals the show. But that is to say nothing against Kurt Russell who is also in fine form playing the lead roll of Wyatt Earp. Wyatt, his brothers and Doc fight on behalf of a town against those pesky cowboys (even if it was some what reluctantly). A truely fine film that was eclipsed at the time of its reals by bigger better funded yet worse cowboy films such as Maveric, yetr the one line that somes up this film is right there on the front of the box, 'Every Town Has A Story Tombstone Has A Legand'
