If you want to see James Van Der Beek and Ashton Kutcher decked out in cowboy hats and leather chaps, Texas Rangers is the movie for you. Van Der Beek is a young recruit out to avenge his family, who were shot down by bandits; Dylan McDermott is the loose cannon commander of the Texas Rangers unit that's out to track those bandits down. Along for the ride are Kutcher, Usher Raymond, Robert Patrick, Randy Travis, and a host of other good-looking young actors. Rachael Leigh Cook provides some assurance that everything is appropriately heterosexual, though a scene in which Kutcher jumps into a washtub with Van Der Beek may raise some eyebrows. Head bandit Alfred Molina grins with nonchalance as his men gun down innocent bystanders. No one in the cast even attempts to speak with a credible Texas accent, but everyone's hair is exquisitely mussed. --Bret Fetzer

This adventurous Western, set in the 1870s, tells the story of the Texas Rangers, a group of young, aggravated vigilantes (James Van Der Beek, Usher Raymond, Randy Travis, Ashton Kusher, and Robert Patrick) that united to fight against the outlaws who threatened the safety of their families and their neighbors. Ranger Leander McColloy (Dylan McDermott) is the leader of the group, and the one who originally organizes the men to revolt against the violent predators who wreaked havoc across the Texan frontier. As large pools of people converged upon the vortex of the Texas Rangers' territories--new American settlers moving west to claim their own land, Mexicans pouring in over the border, and Native Americans struggling to reclaim their original property--anarchy seemed inevitable. Ranches were broken apart and pillaged by swarming gangs of rowdy cowboys. Only the Texas Rangers could maintain peace where local law enforcement could not. This exciting, historically gauged action drama will delight audiences with a rough-and-tumble story of vigilante victory.

After the Civil War, Texas suffered the loss of many experienced lawmen and had become overtaken by murdering bandits. Tired of losing property, family and their livelihoods to these outlaws, a group of young cowboys were summoned to reband the Texas Rangers.
