With him on the train are native American Tonto and a dangerous criminal named Butch Cavendish who is actually on his last journey as he will be hanged. It starts in the 1869 when the lawyer John Reid comes home to Texas by train.
This is the introduction movie for the hero which tells the story how the unspectacular John Reid becomes the Lone Ranger. There should be a picture of him in the dictionary under bad ass. He arrested more than 3000 criminals (That is no typo!), was non corruptible as he even arrested his own son when he committed a serious crime and was a master of disguise, master shooter, spoke many languages and was a skilled tactician as he did outsmarting his opponents easily. Many say he is based on real live Bass Reeves who was the first black (deputy) Marshal west of the Mississippi and a legend.
The idea was based of transferring a hero like Zorro into the wild west. He was created in the 1930s for a radio play and became more famous with TV show adaptations. The Lone Ranger is a really old fictional hero. Much feels stretched or is uninteresting and some scenes don't work. For clarification: There are awesome scenes and a lot works well but you have to wait too long for the highlights.
