Amazon.com essential video:
Clint Eastwood fired the original director, Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff), and took over the reins of this project himself. He may have had a point: this brutal, thoughtful western, a near-tragedy about a Civil War veteran whose past comes looking for him, is probably Eastwood's most mature frontier drama prior to the Oscar winning Unforgiven. Hoping to build a quiet life in a cooperative community of settlers, Eastwood's Wales blames himself when his enemies attack the homestead, and he has to revert to his warrior instincts to help fend off the threat. The jittery intensity of Sondra Locke (who would be Mrs. Eastwood, at least for a while), and the screen-filling charisma of the late Chief Dan George harmonize beautifully with Eastwood, who had finally figured out how to add depth and texture to his stock-in-trade Man of Steel persona. This one may be too short on action to satisfy fans of Eastwood's Dirty Harry films, or of the Italian westerns he made with Sergio Leone, but it's an honorable effort. --David Chute

The Outlaw Josey Wales,1976,directed by Clint Eastwood is by far Eastwood's best western,nobody could've played the outlaw better,reminiscent of the dollars trilogy,yet a more mature,polished and relaxed Clint Eastwood and a good solid cast surrounding the set,Chief Dan George gives a natural stand up performance as Lone Watie,but mostly it is Clint Eastwood's show as Josey Wales,packing two pistols that bring to life or death some true actual events occuring during the Civil War pertaining to guerilla ...

This film marked a change of pace for Clint Eastwood, the director. Rather than just another minor Western, Eastwood turned the genre around by focusing more on character than just action and earned an accolade from one of the greatest filmmakers ever, Orson Welles. In an interview with Dick Cavett, Welles stated that this film ranks with some of the best Westerns that John Ford ever made and is one of the best American films ever made. To further state this point, Welles even sent a letter to Clint expressing ... Read More

I initially saw this film when I was in high school. It was OK, but I've recently revisited it (seeing it in a widescreen, digital transfer on DVD over the pan and scan crap on VHS does wonders for it), and it's one of Clint Eastwood's greatest achievements as director and as actor. It was only his fifth film as director, and it shows a deep maturity and intelligence that usually wasn't seen in Westerns (or Hollywood, for that matter). It's a great film, a work of art, a true epic, and a poetic, complex, and ... Read More

The pace of the action is good. The dialogue has some humor and does not get in the way of the story telling or the scenes of gun fights. The story of betrayal and retribution is worth watching again and again. The gunning down of the redlegs (villians) by the outlaw Josey Wales (hero) will have you cheering for more. This is an enjoyable action film. Be sure to have hot, fresh popcorn available.

This film had every chance of being a great movie but lost its course somewhere along the way. The movie, especially the last half of the movie, should have been tightened up plenty. Because it wasn't, the movie is too long.
The first part of film is excellent. Clint Eastwood, as the poor farmer, Josie Wales, is attacked by the Yankee Red Legs who have swept in from Missouri. He is sabered, his child killed and his wife raped and murdered. The grief-ridden Wales, buries his family, recovers his ... Read More
