Director Simon Wincer
American sharpshooter Matt Quigley is hired by an Australian land baron to shoot aborigines from a distance. Quigley rejects the job offer and leaves. The rancher tries to kill him for refusing, spawning a deadly game of cat-and-mouse in which only one will be left alive.

Quigley, a stoic American sharpshooter from the old West, travels to the untamed wilderness of the Australian outback after answering an advertisement calling for a man who's handy with a rifle. Once in Australia, the Yank discovers that he's been hired by a despicable landowner named Marston who (with the government's support) wants him to eradicate the area's aboriginal population. Furious, Quigley throws the wealthy despot out a nearby window -- and thus begins a heated vendetta by the spurned Marston to exact deadly revenge against the principled outsider.

Quigley (Tom Selleck) is an American sharpshooter imported from the heat and dust of the Old West to the heat and dust of the Australian outback to fight off rustlers. Upon arrival, he learns he's been hired to kill Aborigines by a heartless rancher, which disgusts Quigley, so he runs off into the bush with a woman he's rescued. The local aboriginals discover him, and help him and the woman survive in the outback long enough for Quigley to return and seek vengeance.

The screenplay for "Quigley Down Under" was written in the 1970s as a potential vehicle for actor Steve McQueen. Directors previously linked to the project include Rick Rosenthal and Lewis Gilbert. Estimated budget $20 million; shot on location in Australia, in Panavision. Simon Wincer previously directed the popular television mini-series "Lonesome Dove" (1989).

5 stars Quigley Down Under Really Shines On DVD
I was very pleased to see the quality job that was done on the new release on DVD of Quigley Down Under! It really added to the scope of it with the beautiful scenic backdrops and the background score that it made watching it like I had never really seen it before. If you like the western themes (although this takes place in Australia) you will really enjoy this one!

5 stars Classic Western Set in Australia
I already had the movie on VHS but wanted it in the more permanent DVD format. I think the movie was well written, directed and acted. Tom Selleck was the best choice for the lead because of the characters gentleness to women and aboriginies as well as the manliness needed to overcome the adversities thrown at him. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes the Western genre as well as anyone whoe likes action/adventure movies as this one has plenty of everything to go around.

5 stars Tom Sellecks Finest!
It's close but I'd give this the Gold medal & Her Alibi the Silver! Mr Selleck is truely outstanding in this western set in Australia & he is the true American hero. Honest, caring, highly moral & "Worlds Best Long Distance Shooter!" The dialog with Crazy Cora is enough for 5 stars but the adventure & suspense put it far over the top!
