A rancher, David Braxton, has a problem with horse thieves, and one especially - Tom Logan. Braxton hires a "regulator", Lee Clayton, to hunt down the horse thieves.

What was this about? I'll re-phrase that: what in tarnation was that all about?

Missouri Breaks, The (1976) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Somewhat notorious Western about a group of horse thieves (led by Jack Nicholson) who are stalking a rich owner who grows tired of them so he hires a "regulator" (Marlon Brando) to track them down and kill them. THE MISSOURI BREAKS was released to some incredibly negative reviews and even today many people consider this one of the worst movies ever made.
