Watch Renegade Girl For Free

That was an excellent one.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Yeah. I know this sounds terribly sexist, but when it comes to Westerns - "The Law Of The West" should strictly forbid them from being reduced to a trifling, little "Chick Flick".I'm a guy who likes my Westerns rugged, mean, and masculine, with very little interference from women in the story at all.Sure Chick Flicks are fine when it comes to any other genre of film, but definitely not allowed in a Western.Ann Savage unconvincingly plays Jean Shelby. This highly-jealous, easily brought to tears woman is (get this) the leader of a tough, all-male band of Confederate raiders. Being so emotionally unstable, Jean's reliability as a leader of these men is seriously brought into question when she secretly turns traitor and falls for a Union soldier, pretty-boy who's actually been stalking her.Yep. Renegade Girl is a dud.Like I said before - Westerns should be forbidden to be made into Chick Flicks!

Okay, I know my summary is harsh, but it is direct and to the point. Even for a cheap B-western, "Renegade Girl" is a bad film—filled with clichés and atrocious writing…really atrocious.The film is set during the waning years of the Civil War. Like so many westerns made during the era, this one involves Quantrill's Raiders—a group of terrorists who fought for the South and who were even hated in the South by many since they pretty much ignored the rules of war at that time. In particular, they attacked Northern towns and targeted civilians. Yet, oddly, this film portrays them as the good guys! Now that's a first.The main focus, however, is not Quantrill but a very anachronistic and overly butch lady. Sporting a 1940s perm and acting like the clichéd western macho dame, she is all fire and emotion. And, she seems to switch her mind from one minute to the next. For example, she helps Quantrill and her brother (one of Quantrill's men)—yet soon after meeting a handsome Yankee officer, she completely abandons her cause and suddenly sees her compatriots as the bad guys! What a flake! Then, after she is injured by a nasty Native, she is saved by this Yankee. Yet, when he leaves her to be cared for, when she awakens she announces that she now HATES him!!! What is with this lady—is she off her medication?!?! Most of the rest of the film is pretty bad as well—filled with bad writing and confusing plot elements. In fact, I absolutely hated the film—and I normally like B-westerns and cut them a lot of slack (although they were cheap, they were usually very entertaining….unlike this film). Not worth your time. But if you are crazy enough to want to see it, this is a public domain film from tiny Robert Lippert Productions. You can follow the links on IMDb and download your own legal copy. Although why you would is beyond me now that you've been warned.

This movie sounded amusing, so I tried to watch it (very) early this morning.The dialogue is wooden and stilted beyond description, and not just a line here and there, but whole scenes! The plot is no better. None of the characters are sympathetic; the heroine scowls from scene to scene, half the males in the movie seem infatuated with her for unknown reasons, but of course, the only one she shows interest in is the one who ignores her during her months-long convalescence--failing to visit as promised until a few minutes after she leaves the home where she has been nursed back to health.Had I been more wakeful, it might have been a jolly experience. As it was, I fell asleep, and when I woke up, a Montel infomercial was running. Alas, I missed the ending--but I did not much care.I don't think anything was cut out of it. I suspect this is just a movie that just didn't come out the way someone must have imagined it.

A Western with a semi-historical Civil War setting, "Renegade Girl" gets off to a fast start and has a good ending, although in between it slows down quite a bit. It has an interesting story and leading character.Ann Savage stars as Jean Shelby, a Confederate sympathizer in Missouri late in the Civil War. She and her family have been helping provide information to Quantrill's raiders, so the Union Army is trying to find the Shelbys, assisted by an outcast Indian who has his own grudge against the family. Things get complicated when Jean and Union Captain Fred Raymond fall in love with each other, raising difficult questions about their loyalties and futures.The film gets off to a pretty good start, with a lot of action that is mostly plausible, especially given the complex historical situation. It slows down then for quite a while, and starts to drag a bit. But it picks up towards the end, and the final sequence is pretty good, and not predictable. Savage does rather well in the lead, making her character mostly believable. Most of the other characters are routine (especially the Indians, portrayed in a very unfavorable light), aside from Edward Brophy as a gregarious member of Quantrill's gang.There's nothing spectacular here, but it's a decent film and should be worth watching either for fans of old Westerns or for those interested in movies about the Civil War era.
