Product Description The year is 1878, Lincoln county. John Tunstall, a British ranch owner, hires six rebellious boys as regulators to protect his ranch against the ruthless Santa Fe Ring. When Tunstall is killed in an ambush, the regulators, led by the wild-tempered Billy, declare war on the Ring.
Part of what was touted as a late-1980s revival of Westerns (and you can see how long that lasted), this good-looking, empty-brained film was like a spurs-and-chaps version of a Joel Schumacher movie, filled with pretty faces, prettier imagery, and absolutely no new ideas. The idiotically grinning Emilio Estevez is cast as Billy the Kid, who slowly accumulates a gang of Brat Pack buddies (Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland, Dermot Mulroney) and fashions them into a group of male models with six-guns. The action is confused and the script is trite, though Terence Stamp is intriguing as the old reprobate who helps the gang get its act together. Followed by an even worse sequel. --Marshall Fine

Such a good flick!
Also, if you watch in slow motion, you can see an uncredited cameo by Tom Cruise getting shot up with squibs.
