John Sturges author of such defining 50ths and 60ths films has " Gunfigth at Ok Corral", "Bad Day at Black Rock", "The Magnificent Seven" and "The great Escape" directed this suspenseful western in 1958 starring Kirk Douglas as a Marshal on the trail of his indian wife murderers!With Anthony Quinn and Earl Holliman giving the usual strong performances and Kirk's powerful portray, "Last Train to Gun Hill" shines as a wonderful example of that most beloved of film genres, the Western!
The dvd edition presents clear image in the original screen ratio (1:78.1)with 5.1 DD sound lots of subtitles and a trailer.

Westerns are so often cliche ridden, sprawling and predictable. But under John Sturges's tight direction this is a first rate and gripping movie. Excellent acting from all three leads. Sturges was a fine director - Bad Day at Black Rock (sadly not available on region 2 DVD - why not?)and The Magnificent Seven are better known but this is just as good.The cinematography is superb.If you like high quality suspense movies this is highly recommended.

Two years after the classic "Gunfight at the OK corral" John Sturges teams up yet again with the legend Kirk Douglas, in this very good revenge western. It also has a great supporting cast including Anthony Quinn and Earl Holliman, as the bad boys. The story is about a Marshal named Matt Morgan (Douglas) who wants his revenge for the murder of his wife. But the problem is the murderer's father (Quinn) is old friends with Matt and they both become rivals. What I like about this film is that it has a mixture of other classic westerns, such as "High noon" and "3:10 to yuma". But I prefer this and the acting performances from Douglas and Quinn are excellent. If you love westerns, you will love this and I guarantee that you will be on the edge of your seat throughout the film.

Kirk Douglas rides again!
Kirk is super smooth in another tailor-made role. I find his acting under-stated and natural and so was very happy to see him perform so effortlessly in this film
