Texas, 1875. In a land without justice, where chaos reigns, one legendary man, Leander McNelly (Dylan McDermott), is chosen to lead a group of unlikely heroes.

Eddie Cockrell Variety 10/18/2008
Large cast is uniformly fine with tongue-twisting, pulpy dialogue, though pic presents only brief flashes of what look to be fully realized characterizations jettisoned at some point during production or post. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire Associated Press 03/07/2007
A documentary on baseball's Texas Rangers and their last-place season would have been more interesting. Go to Full Review Marrit Ingman Austin Chronicle 03/10/2003

Texas Rangers could have been so much better. It has terrible yet fun cult movie written all over it but as you can imagine, things didn't go according to plan. Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews 07/04/2018

Linda B @Chanel0721 May 21 I loved the movie! It was a great cowboy movie!! See more Haris T @HarisTz Mar 2 If you want to kill some time, scrolling on sosial media while watching when some action occurs it's the perfect movie. See more Jeff R @jsrore Feb 13 Not the best, but not the worst if you like Texas ranger stuff worth watching See more thiago s @Thiagostone 03/21/2025 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme tem cenas de fracas de faroeste, e a história é fraca, o elenco é bom, mas parece que todo o elenco não combinou com o gênero do filme, os personagens sao fracos, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, e faltou muitas cenas para o filme ser bom. See more Per S @RT83737705 02/23/2022 Take note, they spent 38 million USD making this movie, and it didn't even get to 800K at the box office. Released in theatres 2001, when Ashton Kutcher was a hype, and finally for streaming in 2016. Texas Rangers is one of those list fillers in the main stream channels' western collection, to see if it can make another few bucks, but really only to continue insulting the genre and those who would know what to do with such a budget. See more 12/20/2020 Dylan McDermott destroys a base and simplistic plot in epic fashion. His acting is on par with Johnny Knoxville. See more Read all reviews
