What happens

Texas Rangers is a 2001 American action Western film directed by Steve Miner and starring James Van Der Beek, Ashton Kutcher, Alfred Molina, and Dylan McDermott. It follows a group of Texas Rangers in the post-American Civil War era. The film is very loosely based upon the book Taming the Nueces Strip by George Durham, who based it on his own experiences serving in Captain Leander McNelly's Texas Ranger group as a young man. Texas Rangers was released by Dimension Films and Miramax Films on November 30, 2001. The film was panned by critics and was a box office bomb, grossing $763,740 against a $38 million budget.
