The Lone Gunmen was the short-lived spin-off series starring those scene-stealing conspiracy theorists from The X-Files. To recap, there is buttoned-down Byers (the bearded, relatively normal-looking one, played by Bruce Harwood), the "man of action" Frohike (the short one who had the hots for Scully, played by Tom Braidwood), and master hacker Langly (the one with the long blond hair, played by Dean Haglund). They also meet some new characters who both help and hinder: a female agent calling herself Yves Adele Harlow (and other anagrams for Lee Harvey Oswald, played by Zuleikha Robinson), who always seems a step ahead of them, and James "Jimmy" Bond (Stephen Snedden), the dimwitted benefactor who thinks that the Gunmen give him a purpose in life.

The series lasted a mere 13 episodes, and in retrospect probably plays better now than it did in the spring of 2001 when the peak years of The X-Files were still fresh in the memory. Thanks to direction and writing by the same creative talent and music by Mark Snow, The Lone Gunmen has the feel of Chris Carter's signature series, though without the impenetrable mythology and the sexual tension (Robinson is beautiful, but let's be serious). The episodes are generally stand-alone affairs reflecting the goofy humor that made the trio part of the comic relief in The X-Files. Light-hearted topics include a blind football team and a super-intelligent chimpanzee, but the closing episode dealt with the familiar themes of alien abduction and government cover-ups (a thread that after the series' cancellation had to be concluded in an episode of The X-Files, which is also included in this set). And particularly chilling is the pilot: aired six months before 9/11, it deals with an attempt to fly an airplane into the World Trade Center. The Lone Gunmen couldn't match the brilliant inspiration of The X-Files (few shows could), but for fans it might just be the next best thing. --David Horiuchi

for the X Files addict.......2007-05-13

Those who enjoyed the Lone Gunmen on the X Files will most likely enjoy this short series. It's too bad that it is so short. There was so much to be explored that will have to be left to fan fiction. Anyone who can't handle bumbling geekiness should probably stay away. The LGs were definitely not the clichéd heroes of most fiction.

The Lone Gunmen DVD's-A Real Disappointment.......2007-05-08

Not good. I thought since the Lone Gunmen was an off shoot from the X File series, the plots for the Lone Gunmen movies would be good. I was wrong and very disappointed. The plots were shallow, unrealistic, and at times, were ridiculous. I think the only movie that was passable was the last one in which he Gunmen are infected by an airborne virus carried by a terrorist. Otherwise, I'm really sorry to have bought this set of DVDs. I know why this series only lasted a few weeks on TV.

Primo!!!.......2007-03-08

Loved it... Didn't realize that I missed so many episodes so many years ago... The pilot is absolutely spokey and a must watch... Can't say more, don't want to spoil it...

Could never understand Jimmy Bond's place as a character but I now understand... It's too bad this series died like it did, or did the threesome actually die... Level 5 coffins would look different...

Highly recommended, even to people that didn't like X-Files. This series wasn't an 'X-Files junior' by any means and stands on its own merits quite nicely. If anything, it came off as more human and the episodes were not so squirmy and squishy as X-Files were...

This series ranks up there with Pretender as one that I'd love to see return from the dead...

I'd highly recommend purchase, if only for the pilot epi...

The best series I have seen... too good for hollywood's slock mill.......2007-03-07

I have a moral obligation to write a review for this series. I have watched it several times. It is so excellent. I have found a few other such series that were canceled by the big biz media conglomerates that control what we see and hear... Perhaps they don't want people to see what really good TV is like, otherwise people might start demanding more intelligent fare from the boob tube. Each episode is great, a new, unique, origianl story. Very well written, acted, filmed - perfect. While very humorous in places the stories are meaningful and relevant. (I like this spin off much better than the X-files, which I don't really care for.) I don't wnat to discuss any of the stories, but they are each amazing and totally entertaining... How long has it been since you have seen anything original and intelligent on the tube? Much better than the horrible CG laced psuedo-films hollywood now churns out. (Three other great series that met similar fates: Firefly, Wonderfalls, and Space Above and Beyond. I rank this series the best on this list of four.)

Excellent series that didnt last.......2007-02-18

If your a fan of the X-files , this series is a no brainer. The lone gunman were always good on X-files and to watch them in their own series is great. I wish they had tied Moulder and Scully into more of the episodes aside from just mentioning their names.

BORED.......2005-02-22

I rented this movie from Hollywood Video. It was a struggle not to turn it off and watch the news. The movie was cheaply made and the acting is mediocre. It is insulting to our intelligence by trying to make us believe what is happening could be reality.
They try hard to conceal the identity of the vigilante for most of the picture. The vigilante knows when and where anything bad is about to happen.
Our detective hero finally catches up to the vigilante just after the vigilante wipes out a bad man. The detective having the drop on this killer and instead of revealing the identity of this super person says go away.
There are many sequences just as unbelievable as this.

Description

Never before available on home video, this 1950 suspense classic has been restored from the original 35mm fine grain masters with 7 censored shots reinstated for the first time since its release. Also known as "Gangster at Bay" and "Time Running Out," this gripping film noir boasts an all-star pedigree: director Frank Tuttle (This Gun For Hire, The Glass Key), stars Simone Signoret (Diabolique, Room at the Top) and Dane Clark (The Glass Key, Destination Tokyo), producer Victor Pahlen (Edgar Ulmer's "Pirates of Capri"), and cinematographer Eugen Schufftan (Ulmer's "Bluebeard," "Eyes Without a Face," "The Hustler"), filmed on location in Paris with a brilliant musical score by Joe Hajos. This film was remade in 1975 as "La Traque." Dane Clark plays an escaped gangster struggling to flee Paris as the police dragnet closes around him, with his former lover Simone Signoret caught in the crossfire. Another thrilling entry in All Day Entertainment's Pulp Cinema Collection, rescuing the lost treasures of film noir!

Customer Reviews:

good noir.......2005-03-30

Like in Borzage's Moonrise, Dane Clark plays an unlikable angry criminal named Eddy. Eddy is an escaped prisoner who goes to his girlfriend Simone Signoret (the excellent French actress who starred in such classics as Diabolique and Room at the Top) for financial help and a getaway. Since his capture Simone has tried to rebuild her life, even getting involved in a relationship with a reporter who got a false scoop from her. Despite the fact that the reporter respects her and she is nothing more than a doormat to Eddy, Simone finds to difficult to change.
This isn't a masterpiece of film noir but it's a nice example. It's directed moodily by Frank Tuttle (This Gun for Hire) but the fine performances by the leads is really the reason to watch.

Description

Is a sensitive and mysterious poet really an IRA gunman in hiding? Set in a Dublin tenement in the 1920's, The Shadow of a Gunman was the first part of Sean O'Casey's celebrated "Dublin Trilogy." Equal parts comedy and tragedy, this classic play is brilliantly performed by a stellar cast including Frank Converse, and Academy Award-winner Richard Dreyfuss (Jaws, Mr. Holland's Opus).

Customer Reviews:

"I know what you are--a gunman on the run.".......2005-01-17

Starring Frank Converse as Donal Davoren, Jack MacGrowan as his friend Seumas Shields, Sandra Morgan as Minnie Powell, and a very young Richard Dreyfuss as Tommy Owens, this 1972 production of Sean O'Casey's 1923 play shows the work of a gifted but still inexperienced playwright. The first of Sean O'Casey's "Dublin Trilogy" to be produced (followed by Juno and the Paycock in 1924, and The Plough and the Stars in 1926), the play is set in 1920, after the Irish battle for independence has begun.

Minnie Powell, Seumas, and the other residents of a Dublin tenement all side with the rebels and assume that Davoren, a poet, is an IRA gunman on the run. Seumas is actively involved with the rebels, using his work as a peddler of second-hand goods to make connections and carry information. Gunfire is constant at night, bombs go off, citizens are killed, and the British police raid houses. During a disturbance the night of the action, Minnie takes a bag of bombs, left under the bed by one of Seumas's friends, into her own room to protect Donal, to whom she is attracted, only to face the police in a raid.

Walking the tight line between the absurd/satiric and the violent/tragic, the play has relatively little action onstage, with most of the play consisting of witty remarks, poetic commentary, and the dialogue of daily life. Converse as Davoren and MacGrowan as Shields work hard to give life to characters who have little dramatic action. Visits by the landlord, a young, hero-worshipping Tommy Owens (Dreyfuss), the flirting Minnie, an IRA bomb-maker, and other tenants change the mood throughout the act and establish the 1920 Dublin atmosphere, though they do not develop character significantly. The flirtation of Minnie (Morgan) and Davoren (Converse) looks and feels artificial.

Most of the first act is a setup for the second, which takes place at night, with gunfire in the distance and the British police raiding the house. The poetry of Davoren contrasts with the grim reality of the gun battle outside, and the elegantly poetic language of the always-sleepy Shields with the brutality of the police, as O'Casey features the men who engage in the chess game of rebellion while the women often make the sacrifices. O'Casey's message about the "excitement" of war is conveyed primarily through language, and not action, despite the actors' best efforts. Directed by Joseph Hardy, the play is a good introduction to the more complex and dramatically effective plays which follow it, and the cast is stellar. Mary Whipple
