For an old western, it was good. This film was had a good storyline to it. Even for modern times it didn't have the usual over exaggerated acting...........except for one character. Let me now complain about the film.
1. Never in my life have I watched a film and herd the main character's name said so many times. When people talk to or about other people they don't keep saying their name right after they got done saying their name. They could have said He, Him, His, You, Hey, Sir, Friend, Partner, Bud, etc.
2. The most annoying character is the kid. The kid asks too many annoying questions. This kid said Shane more times than all the other characters combined. This kid whined more than any other kid in a film I've ever watched. 30 minutes into the film I was hoping this character was going to die...not sorry. This kid ran the house, must never have gotten punished, and had me wishing I could slap him. Bang bang bang bang bang, SOMEONE STOP THIS BRAT! I've never punched a kid before but I was ready to go to prison. I had to keep pausing it because he was getting on my nerves over and over again. Well, I can at least say I watched the film.
