Wyatt Earp (1994) and Tombstone (1993) were films released six months apart, each prominently featuring Old American West icon Wyatt Earp.
Although Tombstone was largely seen as the superior film, and Wyatt Earp argued as a flop by many, I take the contrarian point of view here.
I believe Wyatt Earp to be an excellent film with a strong cast of some of the my all-time favorite actors, starring Kevin Costner, Gene Hackman, Dennis Quaid, Tom Sizemore, Michael Madsen, Mark Harmon, Isabella Rossellini, and Bill Pullman. That is a very tough cast to of talented and charismatic actors to beat.
The three-hour wild west epic adventure is well worth the time, with memorable scenes and dialogue.

Micheal Madsen and Tom Sizemore were not exactly well cast. Tombstone was an epically entertaining movie. Have to disagree on this one.
Val Kilmer seals the deal on this arguement. Tombstone won.
Agree Chess, Costner’s Wyatt Earp was superb and really got into the mythos and lore. Tombstone is a far second except for Vals job. Dennis Quaid was amazing, my favorite scene:

Costners 40 year olds playing 20 year olds is watchable at best. There is no debate on which is the better film. Tombstone is a rare 90’s classic.
