Trendle or by Fran Striker, the show's writer. He first appeared in 1933 in a radio show on WXYZ (Detroit), conceived either by station owner George W.
The character has been called an enduring icon of American culture. The Lone Ranger is a fictional masked former Texas Ranger who fought outlaws in the American Old West with his Native American friend, Tonto. Because of the good stuff I still give a 6/10.Above-average athlete, horseman, hand-to-hand combat, and master of disguise I see this as something that could have worked far better. Overall this is a good movie hidden behind a weaker script. A good soundtrack but I would really liked to know what Ennio Morricone would have done here -). They use the final of William Tells overture by Rossini (You know this track but not by name -), Poor Paddy on the Railway is a classic Irish song and I also like the tracks Absurdity, For God and Country and Reds Theater of Absurd. I see no missteps here and was sometimes impressed by the efforts. The Oscar nominations for the make up and visual effects were rightfully deserved. The costumes, sets, weapons and shoot outs were excellent. Visually this movie looked really good by western genre standards. Special credit to Saginaw Grand as chief Big Bear. The other villain I wont spoil is also exactly what you want from a bad guy. William Fitchner as Butch Cavendish is remarkable and works well as does his gang. James Badage Dale as Dan Reid is more hero material than his brother and even the characters in the movie address it. While he makes a great performance it failed in that regard but does not cheapen his achievements. With Johnny Depp as Tonto they wanted to recreate a Captain Jack Sparrow feeling. The script weakens his character and makes him less enjoyable. Armie Hammer is actually not bad as John Reid aka the Lone Ranger. In better movies neither the humor nor serious moments harm the other. There is one scene in particular were Tonto’s loss repeats itself and when it starts working they make a (horse) joke that took me out of the immersion and cheapened the build up to this. The humor is also good but sometimes poorly separated from the serious moments. However it has its moments and I liked the climax. Like I said it takes far to long to get momentum and some scenes are uninteresting. I always make the following argument here: Can you summarize the story in a way it sounds good and interesting for another person? If yes then it is good but has weaknesses in the execution. I can see it working quite well if it was ironed out. However this is easier said than done and will be the start of the adventure and there is more to it than it seems. With him on the train are native American Tonto and a dangerous criminal named Butch Cavendish who is actually on his last journey as he will be hanged.
It starts in the 1869 when the lawyer John Reid comes home to Texas by train. This is the introduction movie for the hero which tells the story how the unspectacular John Reid becomes the Lone Ranger. There should be a picture of him in the dictionary under bad ass. He arrested more than 3000 criminals (That is no typo!), was non corruptible as he even arrested his own son when he committed a serious crime and was a master of disguise, master shooter, spoke many languages and was a skilled tactician as he did outsmarting his opponents easily. Many say he is based on real live Bass Reeves who was the first black (deputy) Marshal west of the Mississippi and a legend. The idea was based of transferring a hero like Zorro into the wild west.

He was created in the 1930s for a radio play and became more famous with TV show adaptations.
The Lone Ranger is a really old fictional hero. Much feels stretched or is uninteresting and some scenes don't work. For clarification: There are awesome scenes and a lot works well but you have to wait too long for the highlights. Lets start with an To be fair without the slow start and with better pacing this would be a better movie. To be fair without the slow start and with better pacing this would be a better movie.
