Review of The Newton Boys (1998) by Tim M — 23 Aug 2008
Between 1919 and 1924, Willis Newton and his three brothers robbed more than 80 banks from Texas to Canada, then capped their career with America's largest train robbery - very interested since Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
Unfortunately these four actors aren't given more than a shred of depth between them. Fast-forward to the closing credits footage of actual Newtons who are much more captivating than the fictitious younger selves portrayed here.
