    • Trivia
      The set for Silverado (1985) was built for this movie, and has since been used in movies such as Young Guns (1988), Wyatt Earp (1994) (also starring Kevin Costner), Last Man Standing (1996), Lonesome Dove (1989), All the Pretty Horses (2000), and Wild Wild West (1999) (also starring Kevin Kline). In the latter film, as a reference to co-writer and director Lawrence Kasdan, "Kasdan Ironworks" can be seen on the side of one of the buildings.
    • Goofs
      After the duel between Cobb and Paden and in the final scene, a 50-star US flag is visible hanging in front of a building. In the 1880s, this should have been a 38-star flag.
    • Quotes

      Mal Johnson: Now, I don't wanna kill you, and you don't wanna be dead.

    • Alternate versions
      CMT Cable runs a version that ends right as the heroes leave the McKitrick ranch. Credits roll with literally the last 20 minutes of the movie cut off.

    Great entertainment

    I love this movie, so much that I finally got tired of renting it and bought a copy. I tell anyone who asks that it's "...the western for 12-year-old boys of all ages." I'd guess that women would enjoy it also, if for no other reason than the superb male cast. I can't think of a film which has a cast with greater depth. I love the humor woven through the episodes of action and buddyhood, and nearly fell out of my seat laughing when John Cleese first appeared on screen. His first line is an all-time great, right up there with Tommy Lee Jones' "My my, what a mess" in The Fugitive (I won't quote it, in case you haven't seen the film). If you want to be thoroughly entertained for a couple of hours, and don't require powerful social import in your viewing choices, I'd recommend Silverado strongly. Actually, the relationship of Danny Glover to the main protagonists IS socially important, so enjoy that too.
