It had been a long time since I first watched this on TV when I picked up this DVD. Quite frankly, I think it's nowhere near as good as other reviewers here suggest. I'm in my 40's a grew up on films like this so it's not as if there's some sort of generational gap involved in me not rating it.

First off, there is little or no chemistry between the leads. Dean Martin is likeable and I enjoyed his scenes most of all. Walter Brennan turns in his usual effective old-man performance. The Wayne-Dickinson romance is unconvincing and rather turns my stomach at the thought of it. He was not a credible romantic lead at this stage in his career. He looks like a somewhat fat old man in this film- and that hat! It's got to be the silliest ... Read More:

Like a number of other reviewers I remember "Kung Fu" as a young boy growing up in the seventies, but I decided to buy this series because of delving into "Kung Fu" from the point of view of philosophy and then memories of my early years and "Caine" came back. Looking at them now as an adult, I am amazed at their depth and content, all of which, of course, went over my head as a boy. There is wisdom to be gained in every episode, word and deed; and always a one-line gem to be found somewhere. It was a great series, unlike anything on t.v. at the time.

Yet again the Ford/Wayne team deliver the goods. Loosely based on a factual action during the U.S. civil war, Wayne leads his union troops deep into the conferacy, the supply depot and railway infrastructure at Newton station is the target. The first part of the film is fairly slow moving, emphasis placed on Wayne's dislike of surgeon Kendall (William Holden) who has been added to his command, and the needless introduction of a female lead (Constance Towers), nice on the eye, but surplus to requirements, as the plot here has the troop constantly on the move.

The real action starts at about the hour mark with the battle and ransacking at Newton station, followed by the events of the journey back to the union lines. Plenty of fighting ... Read More:

Red Sun aka Soleil Rouge is one of those gloriously demented pitches - cowboys and samurais in a French-Italian Western shot in Spain by an English director with a Swiss leading lady. As if that isn't mad enough, the villain is Alain Delon's French cowboy, who leaves his train robbing buddy Charles Bronson to take the fall after stealing the Emperor of Japan's gold sword, leaving Bronson and the Japanese ambassador's samurai bodyguard Toshiro Mifune with only seven days to track it down before the Kurosawa regular has to commit hari-kiri ("Now that's something I'd like to see!" quips Bronson). Oh, and Ursula Andress and Capucine are along for the ride, as is Terence Young regular Anthony Dawson as the screen's unlikeliest cowboy desperado. Throw in a hostile tribe ... Read More:

As at least one of the reviews in favour of this film came from the UK I thought I was in with a chance of being amused. I had thought that a film with James Garner, Jodie Foster and Mel Gibson in the lead roles would be very good but this is really a "ho hum" film. Some of the costumes and scenic shots are great but there is some very poor cutting, particularly in the bank robbery sequence, where it is obvious part of the plot has been cut. The comedy is not very funny and the script is pretty low level. I am very glad I watched this on my own and didn't persuade my husband to watch it with me. It would have been a shame to waste both our time. Don't bother spending your money on this one. I will be donating my copy to freecycle.

Dances With Wolves [1991] (REGION 1) (NTSC)


starring: Kevin Costner, Mary McDonnell, Graham Greene, Rodney A. Grant, Floyd 'Red Crow' Westerman
directed by: Kevin Costner
May 25, 2004
Best Selling > DVD > Westerns

Kevin Costner has always been one of those actors you either love or hate, much like the singing and celebrity of Victoria Beckham or Marmite.

It is unfortunate then, that it is these personal feelings which cloud judgement about whether or not to see a film. Because, in a time when the idea of race relations is once again at the forefront of the news, this simple story of a man open to change can tell us a lot.

Lt John Dunbar (Coster) is a civil war hero. Given the choice of outpost as a reward for a selfless act on the battlefield, he picks the furthest place he can find, the prairee. Also known as Indian country.

Far from being the war-mongering madmen his superiors are presented as, Dunbar is a quiet, docile man, eager to learn and thoughtful. ... Read More:

The penultimate collaboration between director Anthony Mann and star James Stewart (excluding the few days Mann worked on Night Passage before parting company with the star under less than amicable circumstances), The Far Country belies its mainstream look to offer another portrait of an embittered man dragged unwillingly to his own redemption, fighting it every step of the way. This time he's a cattle driver whose response to labour problems - challenging troublesome cowhands to a gunfight at the end of the trail - results in his cattle being confiscated by John McIntire's larcenous judge of the Roy Bean school of law and order. Stealing them back and taking them across the Canadian border, he soon finds himself unwillingly drawn into the growing conflict between prospectors and the judge as ... Read More:

Although this is a fine series and an excellent return to an influential icon when I was a kid (everyone was dodging Indian arrows and oriental influences at school...) I'm angry with the fact that the picture has been "zoomed", and therefore damaged, to fit a full 16:9 screen. I find this a true insult to the original format and a very bad service to the people who worked to get their vision on the screen way back then. As a customer, I strongly feel that there should be a clear warning about this. Bad form.
