Review of Quigley Down Under (1990) by Robert P — 30 Jul 2012

This is one of my favorite westerns of all time, and it is not even set in the "Old West". Tom Selleck gives a completely terrific performance as Matthew Quigley, the long range gunman that takes it as an affront when told he was brought all the way to Australia to kill the native population and quickly becomes enemies with his boss played awesomely by Alan Rickman.

Quigley Down Under is a fun different type of western that keeps you interested through believable characters and the incredible scenery, plus a really really big gun, and it is pity that there was never a follow up made.
