<u>SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL GUNFIGHTER</u>: Whew, that was close... A close call... For when a great thing is ruined by trying to continue it, especially when the original, through exposition by Jack Elam, has the character's futures all mapped out till the grave, it would be tough to make a sequel to SHERIFF keeping the same leading man in James Garner but with a different woman; this time Garner plays a rambling con-man the likes of his MAVERICK persona whose name is Latigo...<br />

He gets off a train in the town of Purgatory, on the verge of a gold boom, or something, and Jack Elam is a sloppy fella working around horses, again, while Harry Morgan's gun-blasting daughter is tough right outta the box, played by Suzanne Pleshette as Patience, wherein the last ingenue was named Prudy, and Burt Kennedy is the writer/producer still... guess this is a RUNAWAY BRIDE type of sequel... but why mention something so awful?<br />
<br />
And yet, alas, GUNFIGHTER isn't too great a ride unlike the nearly perfect SHERIFF. Garner's character has a few more layers than the no-nonsense lucky one-tick pony, but seems to be lazily revisiting his far more likable con artist from television yesterday...<br />
<br />
And there's an overall plot to be had, somewhere, about two different groups of miners, between the town, involved in a two-year war on who gets to the gold first. And instead of being on the way to Australia, reluctantly taking the job... this time, of a Gunfighter... Garner's excuse is he's waiting three days for the local doctor to remove a tattoo of a woman's... an old woman's... name on his chest: horrible writing at its best, or worst. Not that GUNFIGHTER is the bottom of the barrel fare, but with dialogue that goes in circles before catching onto something, anything, that can provide a worthwhile little story, or even a scene worth watching, it all plays out like a TV movie that wouldn't have made it past the green-light stage if it weren't for the predecessor – the only reason why to buy the Twilight Time double-feature in the first place.<br />

When Johnny Depp played THE LONE RANGER, it was basically his endearingly ragged PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN Captain Jack Sparrow in another form. Robert Downey Jr’s smart aleck Sherlock Holmes could very well be IRON MAN Tony Stark roaming through the fog-shrouded Baker Street. And that concept of a popular actor bringing their beloved niche persona from one vehicle to another wasn’t entirely new...<br />
<br />
In the course of the 1990’s when Mel Gibson reigned supreme, his LETHAL WEAPON director Richard Donner decided to reboot an old TV series, a concept that, in itself, hadn't snowballed like it would a few years later. And taking over James Garner’s Bret Maverick was Mel himself, acting just as silly and crazy-brave as Detective Riggs, only he’s not suicidal from the onset: the ironic fact we begin with Maverick about to hang himself, well, it wasn't his choice. <br />

Lead villain Alfred Molina has everything against the roguish gambler, and when we cut back days earlier, Maverick is looking forward to and trying to save up for a half million dollar gambling tournament, serving as a plot-horizon throughout the various cons, most of which are completely farfetched and distractingly banal. Especially one concerning Native American actor Graham Greene, fresh from an Oscar nom in DANCES WITH WOLVES, turning in one of the worst performances ever filmed: pretending to be the typical “racist Indian stereotype” from the old black & white movies, he's not funny enough for a parody or genuine enough to be a worthy sidekick.  <br />

But we’re skipping past Maverick’s two main co-stars: first his ingénue, a resilient tart stealing from every man she meets. Herein, Jodie Foster is the most miscast on board (first choice Meg Ryan would have worked better). The edgy character-actress hasn’t much of a mainstream leading lady persona. Thankfully our wily hero prefers to roam alone, and spends most of the time avoiding her and lawman Marshal Zane Cooper, where the original 50's era MAVERICK James Garner has a piece of the action… somewhat.<br />
<br />
Although Garner really sinks his teeth into the only sequence that matters: The river boat tournament led by James Coburn’s Commodore Duvall, harboring a location that's a plush version of the HIGH NOON main street with a neat surge of twists and tricks making up for the banality of the road adventure leading to what (and where) the entire ride is about. And with cameos by character-actors Dub Taylor, Denver Pyle, Paul L. Smith, the recently departed Geoffrey Lewis, Donner’s former Lois Lane, Margot Kidder and a handful of others including a surprise Danny Glover punchline-appearance, MAVERICK not only caters to the built-in fan-base of the original series, but that cop movie franchise where Mel Gibson was able to steal a show he already had in the bag.

<br />
Not really. Because Rockford, played by James Garner, is far from your typical steely hero as depicted in old movies and books. He’s a down-to-earth guy who constantly lands in hot water… And that water made up six seasons of the classic crime series starring the legendary James Garner, who recently passed away. And THE ROCKFORD FILES fan-fav episode WHITE ON WHITE AND NEARLY PERFECT begins like it’s already halfway through. Within the first couple minutes we learn that Stuart Margolin’s con artist Angel Martinez is in jail, where Jim also spent the night after – something went wrong, as usual. But when Rockford's reluctantly partnered up with Tom Selleck’s Lance White, his kinks are more noticeable than ever. <br />

Throughout the entire series, Jim Rockford, an ex con turned P.I., is both slick and spontaneous, trudging through the necessary steps to find a shabby means to an end. Which is the polar opposite of Selleck’s unscathed investigator, who glides from one location to the next with everything handed him.<br />
<br />
“You’re naïve, Lance, you really are... You have to be cynical… You have to question things… You can’t take someone named ‘Belle LaBelle’ on face value… What’s her angle? Whose payroll was she on…<br />
<br />
"You find out the answers to those things, and then you start moving fast and crooked… You go through doorways, sideways and low, at odd angles… You look for the big lie… Question everything!” And while Lance shrugged off this advice, it summarized everything that made THE ROCKFORD FILES a sublime 180 degree turn for James Garner, who could always play an imperfect character with sheer perfection... And below the pic is a quote from character actor Pepe Serna, who worked with Garner in another episode...<br />
