  • Tom Horn -- Frontier hero at the end of his career (Steve McQueen) is hired by a group of ranchers to stop some rustlers, a job he performs with such murderous zeal that they decide to get rid of him by framing him for murder. Though director William Wiard fails to provide much dramatic steam, McQueen's solid performance raises the material a notch above the standard Western. Some graphic violence. (A-III) (R) ( 1980 )




    These movies have been evaluated for artistic merit and moral suitability by the media reviewing division of Catholic News Service. The reviews include the CNS rating, the Motion Picture Association of America rating, and a brief synopsis of the movie.

    The classifications are as follows:

    A-I -- general patronage;
    A-II -- adults and adolescents;
    A-III -- adults;
    L -- limited adult audience, films whose problematic content many adults would find troubling. L replaces the previous classification, A-IV.
    O -- morally offensive.

    Note: Some movies previously were designated A-IV. Older films with this classification should be regarded as classified L.
