GONE TO TEXAS
I did not particularly liked the movie. I think it was done on the cheap, too full of cliches,macho posturing, and as usual depicted the foes of Bowie, Crockett, and other defenders of the Alamo as unconscionable, mean people, misstatements, and with omissions of truths. I personally do not recommend the movie to anyone.

movie Gone to Texas
Was so glad to find this movie. Have wanted it in for many years, unable to get it. It came in great shape. Have really enjoyed it. Glad to get it in DVD format !!!!

Sam Elliott is good in this movie
I love Sam Elliott. I bought this because I like Sam Elliott, Tennessee, and Sam Houston. Nothing is particularly factual here and the picture quality of the DVD stands a lot of improvement. But a decent watch, when tired of everything else on your shelf.

OK for a Cold Winter Day
This is not the best TV movie ever made, but it's got its moments. In particular, several actors truly bring to life the people they portray. John P. Ryan personifies the jerk history knows David Burnett to have been. Richard Yiquez and Peter Gonzales Falcon had roles much too small, as General Santa Anna and Juan Seguin, but they played them so very well. Sam Elliott, particularly in exhibiting Houston's oratorical skill, was fascinating. It comes closer to portraying the time than do many other depictions of the Texas Revolution. Given a choice between this one and The Alamo (2004), I'll take Gone to Texas.

waste of money
I was excited when this DVD arrived today, however, as I sat and watched it my excitement quickly disappeared. It was very obvious that this film had a low budget, the acting (apart from Sam Elliott) was pathetic, and the editing, along with the effects demonstrate that the makers of this film could not really be bothered. A waste of money and since the Australian exchange rate is poor, the waste for me was even more so! Very disappointed!
