THE LEGEND OF THE LONE RANGER (Theatrical Release USA 1981)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.5|5.0 Starsììì 

The Legend of the Lone Ranger—good stage settings—runs as an okay film to fill an afternoon. There are a few interesting scenes that team President Ulysses Grant with Buffalo Bill, Wild Bill Hickok, and George Custer which is odd but an interesting concept to add to the film.

? Yes? No? Maybe? 

No. The film needs a boost in portrayal and acting. If the audience is looking for a walk down memory lane, then it might work for a childhood return to the Saturday morning format of The Lone Ranger televised series broadcast for children, but expectations run a little higher for a theater release. The movie comes off as superficial.
