The Legend of the Lone Ranger review at the Plaza
Universal release stars Klinton Spilsbury and Michael Horse with Christopher Lloyd. The review notes a straightforward old fashioned western tone with clear heroes and villains yet finds the film lacking depth and cinematic sharpness. It cites uneven visuals by Laszlo Kovacs, unexpected violence and swearing for a kiddie market, and questions why the Lone Ranger becomes a legend in this adaptation.
