Skip it. American Outlaws is a poorly-received western that even generous viewers on IMDb couldn't push above a 5.9, and critics were brutal for a reason. Unless you're specifically hunting for guilty-pleasure B-movies, your night is better spent literally anywhere else.

Plot

When a Midwest town learns that a corrupt railroad baron has captured the deeds to their homesteads without their knowledge, a group of young ranchers join forces to take back what is rightfully theirs. They will become the object of the biggest manhunt in the history of the Old West and, as their fame grows, so will the legend of their leader, a young outlaw by the name of Jesse James.
