3 out of 5 stars What a difference 40 years makes   October 12, 2008
I first saw this movie back in the mid '60s when I was about 14 and thought it was a great movie. I recently purchased it on DVD and looked forward to enjoying it again. Unfortunately, like some wine this movie didn't age well. While there were some amusing spots (Donald Pleasance's performance)I found a great deal of the movie to be rather corny and ham handed. It was amusing to view again after forty years or so but for me it's not a keeper.


5 out of 5 stars Just a clean fun western movie   July 25, 2008
I know zero people who have seen this funny western movie. Too bad. It's not all that sophisticated, and it has some non-PC characterizations. But if your object is watching a movie just to have fun, this one has lots of it. The oracle stole the show just as cleanly as the first time I saw this film. The DVD is high-quality.


5 out of 5 stars Good movie   July 16, 2008
This was one of my husband's favorite old movies and I didn't remember seeing it. So I ordered it for him and we watched it the other night. It was very good.


4 out of 5 stars enjoyable comic western   June 15, 2008
A humorous look at the wild west where the temperance ladies cause more uproar than the liquor seeking Indians or the greedy mining community leaders with Burt Lancaster, the fort commander, trying to keep peace. Good fun.


5 out of 5 stars The first- and still best-Mocumentary?   April 19, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is one of my favorite movies. It is a very warmly told send up of every historical documentary ever made about any conflict. Many fine actors are featured but the two who truly stand out are Burt Lancaster and Lee Remick. Lee Remicks portayal of Cora Templeton Massingale has to be her all time finest performance, played to absolute perfection. Unlike later mocumentaries this film is a light handed comic gem- there is humor at all levels from the most basic slapstick to witty repartee. This film does not just amuse- you will find some outright belly laughs in this picture.
