★★★ · It was pretty good · kareneliot · 2010-09-11
It was a very typical Daniel Boone-type story, and I was entertained by it.
★ · Wrong land features · Dr Feel Rotten · 2010-11-06
This movie has huge ponderosa pine growing in the Carolinas and Kentucky in the 1700s which were not native species and had mountains with desert scrub, a feature native to California where it was filmed which utterly kills any sense of authenticity. Boone was also a failed speculator always in debt up to his eyeballs. One word for this film,,, FAIL like almost every Daniel Boone film made in hollyweird.
Just a side note. · surfvh · 2010-11-19
Daniel Boone actually wore a beaver felt hat to keep the sun out of his eyes, instead of the coonskin cap he's normally portrayed in.
