Member Rating:  
A drunken gunfighter, a female outlaw, and three deeply disturbed women discover just what it takes to survive in the wild west when they're targeted by a relentless killer and a jealous husband in this western adventure starring Kevin Sorbo, Lance Henriksen, and Dominique Swain. Preston Biggs (Sorbo) used to be the law in Clearwater, but then his spirit died along with his wife. These days Preston is just another gun-toting drunk, but the new sheriff of Clearwater is about to offer him a deal: escort three women suffering from "prairie fever" back to civilization, and Preston can forget about the debt he incurred by busting up the local saloon. Lettie tried to kill her husband, Abigale proved far too fragile for prairie life, and Bible-quoting Blue just snapped one violent night out on the farm. These women simply can't function in such harsh living conditions, and as Preston leads the group across the prairie plains he happens across a desperate young woman named Olivia (Jamie Anne Allman). Olivia is desperate; she's just escaped from her vengeful partner Monte (Henriksen) and if she doesn't move fast he'll have her head. As chance would have it, Preston could use a girl like Olivia on this trip. But Monte isn't the only one searching for this coveted covered wagon, because Blue's ruthless husband is scouring the plains in search of his missing wife. When the bullets start to fly, this strange band of misfits must rely on each other to make it home alive. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    A rather interesting story line that I found very enjoyable. Perhaps a bit slow moving at times, but well done even then and at times the twists and turns left me chuckling while at the same time identifying with some of the emotions portrayed. A somewhat light hearted western, a few bad guys, a couple of unfortunate turns of events, a "love story", a tragedy, and some humor make this good, clean family viewing with a happy ending.

    We love good westerns which are really had to find. BYW, It is hard to believe that all the actors are so well scrubbed out in the west. Anyway, this one at least had SOME decent actors and a plot. Okey...
