Burt Lancaster is magnificent as Ned Buntline. The rest of the movie is a mismash that really makes no sense, unless one's into negativity. I checked it out, due to its wonderful cast, and really wish I'd spent my time doing something worthwhile . . . . like watching paint pell.

It's safe to say Dean Martin has never gotten his due, and the filmmakers do a wonderful job of rectifying this. They show the man not only as an outstanding all-around entertainer, but someone who never really knew what he wanted. They cover every aspect of his life, and do so very well. I was entertained, enlightened, and saddened.

This film was directed by one of my favorite directors and has a magnificent cast. The screenwriter is an immense talent. So what went wrong? Just everything. It's a complete waste of time and a convoluted mess. If you see this appear on your television, simply change the channel. You'll be glad you did.
