Classic late western. Believable atmosphere. Great landscapes. Good looking. Eastwood basically being again the man w/o name. It adds nothing innovative to the Western genre though: due to a tragic personal loss, an ordinary farmer subsequently becomes a feared outlaw (we must assume since this part isn't told) who hates authorities, who likes other people on the margins of society, who is a violent man but kept some basic decency. It drags a little but it's still a solid Western.

Great film overall, watched many times. The issue with watching it many times you start to see major flaws in the plot. But still a great watch

As someone has pointed out, the opening scenes are horribly acted...it was almost bad enough to cause me to stop watching, but I wanted to give it a fa More

I guess we all died a little in that damned war.

The Outlaw Josey Wales is directed by Clint Eastwood, who also stars as Wales, and is adapted by Sonia Chernus & Phil Kaufman from the novel "The Rebel Outlaw: Josey Wales" written by Forrest Carter. Joining Eastwood in the cast are Chief Dan Georg More

A little overlong, though 'The Outlaw Josey Wales' is an entertaining watch - with cool action sequences and a pleasing ending.

You have a strong performance from Clint Eastwood and good support showings from the likes of Chief Dan George and John Vernon. The plot is interesting and the More
