Goodnight for Justice

Network: Hallmark Movie Channel

Original Air Date: January 29, 2011

"Beverly Hills, 90210" stars Luke Perry ("A Gunfighter's Pledge") and Jason Priestley ("Expecting A Miracle") reunite for the Hallmark Movie Channel Original, "Goodnight For Justice."

CAST:

Luke Perry ... John Goodnight
Lara Gilchrist ... Kate Ramsey
Ron Lea ... Tom Reed

PLOT:

from Hallmark Channel Press Release:

Luke Perry is an executive producer and the lead star of the film about a boy in the American Old West who witnesses an act of murderous violence that claims the lives of his parents and an influential public official. Affected by the memory of the slain official's grandeur and eloquence, the boy grows up to be an arbiter of law, a Circuit Judge, hell-bent on justice. Jason Priestley is set to direct the film, based on material developed by Luke Perry.

John Goodnight (Perry) has a crystal clear memory of the day that his family was victimized by ruthless outlaws. He and the wife of Circuit Judge Aldous Shaw were the only survivors of the attack; she would become his foster mother. Goodnight cannot forget the corrupt man who destroyed his family - the man he also recalls walked with a limp - and he lives for a second chance encounter with the outlaw.

After a rocky start as a solicitor, the Governor swears John Goodnight in as the Western Territories next Circuit Judge. Goodnight travels the West seeking protection for the innocent, until one fateful day, when his journey takes him to a place that is all too familiar.

Thirty years after John Wayne – the face the of the American Western – rode off into
the sunset for the last time. His grandson, Brendan Wayne, dusts off his grandfather’s cowboy hat for a role in “Angel and the Badman,” a remake of ‘The Duke’s’ 1947 classic, which was also the first film that Wayne served as producer for.

Lou Diamond Phillips and Luke Perry star as a pair of rival outlaws, one trying to change his ways and the other with murder on his mind. Wounded and on the run, notorious gunman Quirt Evans (Phillips) takes refuge with a sympathetic Quaker family. As he recovers, he begins to fall for the family’s beautiful daughter (Deborah Kara Unger, “88 Minutes”), and the hardened criminal begins to reconsider his violent ways in favor of the family’s peaceful, simple life. But Quirt’s past won’t let him escape that easily: Not only is he tempted by a lucrative offer made by his former partner, Randy (Wayne),but his deadly rival, Loredo (Perry), the man who wounded him, is hot on his trail and looking to finish the job.

A Gunfighter's Pledge

MOVIE REVIEW

A Gunfighter's Pledge A.K.A. The Pledge:

Hallmark Channel cowboy style movie starring Luke Perry (Dillion from Beverly Hills 90210). This movie is NOT suitable for children or tweens due to extreme and vivid Western Style Gun Violence.


CAST:

Luke Perry ... Matt
Jaclyn DeSantis ... Amaya
Kim Coates ... Tate
C. Thomas Howell ... Horn
Francesco Quinn ... Sheriff Montero
Wyatt Smith ... Billy


PLOT:

A man gives a pledge to return money to a dying man’s widow and when he does, gets caught up in her fight to save her ranch from powerful men in the town who want the land for the water rights.


Movie Review:

I couldn't believe I was watching a made-for-TV Hallmark Movie. The Gunslinging violence was intense... and we are not just talking about a high noon - in the middle of town, show down. In the opening of the movie, Matt's (Luke Perry) wife and son are violently shot and killed. And the violence continues from there - throughout the film.

It's a true Western Style Movie... in the sprit of the movie, Open Range. There is finally at the end of the movie, a mix of redemption and justice for Luke Perry's character... though he never seems to be fully happy again, even after he has fought for and sought his revenge.

This Scripture may explain why:

Romans 12:19
"Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."


See or Skip:

I do enjoy some westerns, when the good guys beat the bad guys... but I must suggest... Skipping this one, due to very intense violence.

Movie Review:

This movie was interesting and witty for a Western-style Movie. I was intrigued throughout the movie to see who would "get the girl". If you love old Westerns, then you should enjoy this... because it is a good ole western style shoot-out movie.

See, but not for children due to guns and violence.
