Veteran rancher and former sheriff John Landsburg (Jon Voight), is forced to challenge the federal bureaucracy when an old enemy, Tap Peterson (James Caan), seeking revenge over a decades-old grudge falsifies documents and alleges Landsburg doesn't actually own his beloved family ranch. John however, isn't the type to go down without a fight. Stars Jon Voight, James Caan, Teri Polo & Melanie Griffith. A Hallmark Movies & Mysteries original movie.
Voight and Caan turn in convincing performances but the movie plays like a pilot for a series. Its let down a bit by details such as California plated vehicles on a "Texas" ranch which is actually in Kentucky. Its entertaining but leaves you hanging a bit since they don't actually wrap things up. I know some political wackos will have their heads explode making a rancher the hero but the story is really a family feud storyline.
