(Written by Kenneth Chisolm) Review: "I'm surprised this movie flopped at the box office. We saw it six or seven times in the theater and assumed everyone else had seen it as well! I loved it as a kid and still love it as an adult. The theme song still makes me want to gallop around on imaginary horses in my living room. From a cinematic perspective, it may not hold up to today's special effects heavy blockbusters, but it's a well-crafted film with a great story that doesn't rely on gratuitous blood and violence. I can't wait to show it to my son, who will be the same age he was when he first saw it. It's an all-time classic in my mind and in my top five." (jesleaford, IMDb.com) "I first saw this movie in 1981 when I was 12 years old, back when the Lone Ranger cartoons were broadcast every Saturday and you could still see Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels early on Sunday mornings. I absolutely loved this movie as a child and later tried to find it on VHS and DVD for many years but it was always elusive. Is this movie a great movie? Maybe not, but I still love it to this day and in my opinion it is far better than the Disney version that came out a while back."
