I'm sure everybody is familiar with Paul Hogan from his "Crocodile Dundee" films & perhaps a few others like "Flipper", but I'll bet a lot of you never knew he made a western. This is that oft overlooked western, "Lightning Jack." I'll admit that this did not win much critical acclaim, but it's one of my favorites & I ask that you give it a chance. You will be pleasantly surprised!

"Lightning Jack" is the tale of an immigrant Australian turned outlaw gunfighter. Lightning Jack Kane (Hogan) is the Rodney Dangerfield of his age in that he gets no respect. Everybody has heard of him, but he gets pushed aside by more infamous outlaws & is seen as just dimwitted muscle for the main gang leaders. Jack desperately wants to make a name for himself & decides to go off on his own to seek fame & fortune to impress "the mates back home." Unfortunately, Jack's ego & advancing age get the better of him in his quest.

In case you haven't guessed yet, this is a comedy more than a serious western as Jack goes through many trials & tribulations during his goal for infamy. Jack is joined in his quest by a mute Ben Doyle, played wonderfully by Cuba Gooding Jr. Gooding does such a good job & his expressions are so fantastic, I felt his performance was Oscar worthy! Ben joins Jack after a botched robbery attempt. He attempts to teach Ben to shoot, but it is hopeless so he supplies him with a sawed off shotgun. Jack regales Ben continuously with explanations of the many talismans he wears, supposedly from a variety of Indian Medicine Men & also tries to hide the fact that he needs to wear glasses to read in their quest to gain Jack his immortality.

Hogan is great as the sometimes bumbling dead eye shooting outlaw & Gooding is fantastic as his side kick. Other names of note include Beverly D'Angelo as Jack's love interest, Roger Daltrey as rival gunfighter John T. Cole & Pat Hingle as the mayor of a vigilante town where Jack hopes to finally gain the fame he so desperately wants. It's a comedic romp all the way to the end! Goodings exaggerated expressions & mugging are worth watching this film for! It's a hard film to come by, but well worth the search!

this is got to be one of paul hogans funniest films tie in a cubba gooding jr and you get a instant classic very well made and a ton of comedy can watch over and over

Bought this movie because my husband really liked it and it's been extremely hard to find in stores.

First, I received the item nearly a month after I ordered it. To give credit to the seller, it was posted that he/she was on vacation, but this is a terrible reason to not ship something you're selling a month later. I sent a message to the seller asking where my item was, to which I never received a response.

funny movie been looking for it for a long time look forward to making more purchases from you thanks again

VERY FUNNY... GREAT FOR A MOVIE NIGHT WITH FREINDS OVER FOR SOME GREAT LAUGHS YOU WILL LOVE IT FUN FOR ALL AGES 10 UP

this is a western comedy, great for the whole family and not alot of nasty words, that almost everyone in todays society thinks a funny movie needs, but funny and entertaining. thank you

I bought the Lightning Jack DVD for my husbands up coming birthday. I was so happy to have recieved it just four days later. It was in excellent condition and made him very happy. Thank you for the fast and speedy service....Cher

I am very pleased with this purchase! This is one of my favorite movies with Paul Hogan and Cuba Gooding!!! I couldn't wait to receive it! Thanks. I bought this because of the price and I can watch it anytime I want!

THis person gave a quick and speedy delivery. Everything was in excellent condition and not a single problem. Thanks.

I have loved this movie ever since it came out. I have been looking for it through my DVD club, with no luck. I found it on eBay, and was pleasantly suprised with what a great purchase I made!

You'll really have to like Paul Hogan to enjoy this movie. Although it has its funny moments, I would have liked to have something original and unpredictable. Although totally unbelievable, on a damp, rainy, stormy day, what the heck? Borrow it but don't waste your money buying or renting it.

I like this guy. He is dependable and honest plus hard working and professional. He communicates well to let you know the status of your order. Although he ships once a week, its a smart thing to do in these harsh economic times. He has a high rating and it should be higher.

it was a great movie, funny and entertaining. at some points during the movie i was rolling around on the floor laughing. i enjoyed it very much. i would recomend it to any and everyone.

My husband and I love this movie, very funny. If you like comedies, I highly recommend watching this movie. It's a comedy/western with Paul Hogan and Cuba Gooding Jr.

we ( my family) really liked the movie, it was full of laughs, good with most ages. My 10 yr old even liked it. I reccomend this one, especially if you liked crocadile dundee, you will like this one too.

extremely funny movie a must see I have been trying to get this movie from a movie club and could never find it so i bought it well worth it

Lightning Jack is a great movie for the whole family. My 12 year old nephew has watched this movie for years. Couldn't find it in the store for him, but founded on E-bay for him. Now he can watch whenever he wants.

This movie isa favorite of a couple people that I know. They have been searching in stores for a while. When I heard that they were looking for it, I checked e-bay and sure enough it was there. I purchased it and everyone is happy.

Its great to be able to find items on e-bay that are not longer available in stores.
Thank you.

My husband and sons just love this movie. So I went on Ebay and found it at a great price and the shipping was very fast. Thank Sara

I have always like the movie and my daughter Amber did to. When I found it on E-Bay, it was a great price and I bought it for her for Christmas. I was very happy with the price and the quickness of the delivery.

I am a fan of any Paul Hogan movies. This is a really funny movie that he does with Cuba Gooding, Jr. I found it at a really good price and in exceleltn condition.
