This movie was just plain bad. Nothing about it was remotely factual to true events of Hickok's life. That might be the only thing true to who he was. He was a notorious liar or blow hard about events in his life, but that is the only thing common to this movie that holds true. The acting is shyte. Not one person who is in this film has a sense of who they are playing, so they just seem lost as to what they are supposed to do. The opening of this movie depicts hickok in his union days having to leave a wounded soldier to die, thus leaving him with remorse........ no accounts of this at all in real life, so why put it in the script. In fact the only two things Hickok ever had remorse for was the very first man he killed, whilst hiding behind curtains. He paid that mans widow 35 dollars, and said he was sorry for doing it. The next was him killing his own deputy who was trying to come to hickoks aide. Nothing in the movie about these things. For heavens sake, they didn't even bother to look the part. Hickok had long curly red hair....... hemsworth short dark brown. I honest don't know why they would have made this movie, my guess is trying to capitalize off the success of films like Unforgiven and Tombstone, sadly they don't come close to either film. Hickok was a real piece of work, but he survived having tremendous luck, (until it ran out) and grit. A good story could have been told about that, and I am sure would have done well.

I am be a little prejudiced, but my son Hunter Fischer is the main little boy in the movie. We have worked with Trace, Kris, Bruce and Kai in a few movies love them all. We grew to love Luke Hemsworth he is an amazing person. We love love the whole cast a crew. They are an amazing group of people.

I thought the movie was great. Luke looked great as wild bill. Shame trace Adkins character was a bad guy, hes nice to look at and hear his sexy voice. Good storyline and great acting I thought!

I liked how they reused the intro scene to American Outlaws (2001). 100% serious, no shade. I think they did a better job with the classic duel weild on horseback than the Jesse James movie. One thing that bugged me was how the whole movie seemed to have major scenes cut out of the storyline so it wasn't as good as I believe it could've been.

WOW - some harsh words here from what I must assume are disappointed fans. Some reviews are almost hateful! But in all honesty this film is not that bad by a long stretch. It has some great moments for sure and some great shootout and fights. Yes I will agree it does fall flat in some places or feel somewhat unfinished in others and at the half way point I did consider stopping the movie and moving on. However I am glad I stuck with it because after a somewhat lack lustre start the movie picks up and races to a satisfying conclusion. If you love westerns give it a shot or 2!

After getting into one scrape with the law after the next, "Wild Bill Hickok" (Luke Hemsworth) rides into Abilene, Kansas and heads directly to the saloon for a drink. While there he saves a young man from getting shot while in a poker game which happens to catch the eye of the local mayor "George Knox" (Kris Kristofferson) who subsequently offers him a job as the town sheriff. Although the town of Abilene is known for its lawlessness this doesn't faze him and so he accepts the job with the intention of establishing law and order one way or the other. Unfortunately, this doesn't please everyone-especially the richest and most influential resident named "Phil Poe" (Trace Adkins) who owns the biggest saloon and has benefited tremendously from the status quo. Likewise, the fact that his fiancé named "Mattie" (Cameron Richardson) seems to have kept a secret from him concerning her relationship with Hickok doesn't please him either. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this turned out to be an enjoyable Western movie with decent performances all around. Admittedly, the pony tail sported by Trace Adkins struck me as rather odd for this particular era but other than that it turned out to be a good, solid film and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.

I really enjoyed watching Hickok. It brought back fond memories of my childhood watching westerns with my family, and it was nice to watch something that wasn't all about SPFX. The casting with Hemsworth, Adkins, Richardson, Dern, and Lyman nicely balanced the story line providing us with believable characters. It's also hard to beat Mr. Kristofferson. This film allowed me to suspend reality for a short while as our guides breathed life into the history of the Wild West. Enjoy honest and engaging storytelling with this one!

Not only a poorly written plot, but poorly executed by all the actors to boot. Too much suggestion to little action. I'm usually a pretty forgiving guy with a pretty good imagination to cover holes in a plot but this is ridiculous beyond my imagination. I was really looking forward to this movie, little did I know I was heading for the Big Crash of disappointment! I love westerns and I'm sorry to say this should be up for "Worst Film of the Year

One of the most poorly written and acted westerns ever. You will cringe at just how bad is the acting and direction. The video doesn't feel right, neither does the audio. And the dialogue. Wow. What a piece of garbage. Kris Kristofferson looks like he's almost dead. And delivers his lines like he's already a corpse.

RELEASED IN 2017 and directed by Timothy Woodward Jr., "Hickok" stars Luke Hemsworth as the titular lawman and gunslinger, nicknamed Wild Bill, who is commissioned as Marshal to tame the wildest cow-town in the Old West, Abilene, Kansas. Kris Kristofferson plays the noble mayor and Bruce Dern the town doctor while Trace Adkins is on hand as the nefarious mogul of the town. Cameron Richardson plays the woman they vie for whereas Kaiwi Lyman appears as Hickok's gunfighter rival. Except for the opening sequences, this is a town-bound Western similar in theme to those Wyatt Earp Westerns where Earp has to clean up a town (Dodge City, Tombstone, whatever). Since practically the entire story takes place in town it's irrelevant that California substitutes for Kansas. It's great to see old Western stars Kristofferson and Dern in fairly significant peripheral roles. Luke is stalwart as the protagonist and the movie really drives home the bold resolve it would take to tame a wild cow-town. Meanwhile the hulking Adkins is formidable as the heavy. While this is a relatively low-budget adult Western (with a little bit of cussing, nudity, covert sex) and there are obvious mistakes here and there (e.g. the kid's bandage appearing on the wrong leg), not to mention the cast probably learned their lines the night before, as well as the predictableness concerning Mattie's kid, the script and main cast keep things compelling. There are several highlights and a few spectacular shots, like the train bridge in the opening act and, later, the moonlit sky. In short, the movie's entertaining for a low budget Western that doesn't overstay its welcome. Western fans who don't demand Grade A quality should eat this up. Keep in mind that not every Western can have the mega-funds of blockbusters like "Dances With Wolves" and "Unforgiven." Just don't look to "Hickok" for accurate history. Nevertheless, I'd watch "Hickok" over the comparatively dull "Wild Bill" (1995) any day. THE FILM RUNS 1 hour 28 minutes and was shot in Agoura (Paramount Ranch) & Santa Clarita, California.
