Fan of Westerns are urged to watch an 80s classic praised as the finest of its genre.<\/p>\n

Streaming platform Netflix<\/a> currently includes a star-studded film as part of its vast collection of Westerns,<\/a> such as Let Him Go and The Harder They Fall.<\/p>\n

Notable personalities including John Cleese<\/a>, Jeff Goldblum and Linda Hunt all feature as part of the A-list supporting ensemble.<\/p>\n

Greeted with favourable critical reception upon its initial release, the picture received nominations for Best Sound and Best Original Score at the 58th Academy Awards.<\/p>\n

Silverado is an action-filled Western about four drifters who join forces and journey to the eponymous town, only to discover it under the control of a corrupt sheriff.<\/p>\n

Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover and Costner portray the lead characters – Paden, Emmett, Mal and Jake respectively – and they all garnered significant acclaim for their performances.<\/p>\n

Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes commented on the picture: “Boasting rich detail and a well-told story, Silverado is a rare example of an ’80s Hollywood Western done right.”<\/p>\n

In 2005 and 2008, the picture was acknowledged by the American Film Institute in the 100 Years of Film Scores list and the AFI’s 10 Top 10 list.<\/p>\n

Enthusiastic viewers flocked to IMDb to express their opinions on the film, with one writing: “Silverado is a phenomenal Western that’s funny, thrilling and emotional and just plain fun. Scott Glenn, Kevin Kline, Kevin Costner and Danny Glover are all incredible.”<\/p>\n
