Movie Reviews of Bluebeard
Movie Review: Simply the Best.
Summary: 5 Stars
My friends often accuse me of not liking comedy. I think this movie proves them wrong. I think I have now seen Richard Burton at his very best. ( Perhaps "The Wild Geese" could be an exception. ) I loved this move. It made me laugh over and over again. And the women were wonderful and beautiful. Raquel Welch was stunning. She alone was worth the watch. However I have to say that Joey Heatherton made this movie for me. She was never the best actress on the big or small screen. BUT if she is not the sexiest I will eat my hat. Girls today wish they had the sex appeal, even one tenth of the sex appeal that Ms. Heatherton carried with her. WOW! How I miss the days of my youth ogling and drooling over Joey Heatherton. This movie reminded just how twitterpated she got me as a very young man just beginning to notice women. Perhaps I should say just beginning to notice what women like Joey Heatherton could do to me. I didn't understand it then but I sure do now and wish I had many more movies of her.
Anyway. I say buy this movie and watch it over and over again and enjoy every second of it. The could try a remake of this movie and in today's world they may make it seem better with special affects, but they will never improve on the fun and enjoyment one receives form watching this movie with this cast. It is simply the best.

Summary of Bluebeard
BLUEBEARD - DVD MovieBaron von Sepper (Richard Burton, who seems to sleepwalk through the film), a European aristocrat of vaguely Germanic heritage, marries and murders a succession of international lovelies (among them Raquel Welch, Virna Lisi, Nathalie Delon, and Marilù Tolo) before his seventh bride, peppy but coy showgirl Joey Heatherton, discovers his secret in a frozen basement museum. Would you believe the Baron is just a nice guy who's a poor judge of character? A man who loves deeply but perhaps not too wisely? Or that he harbors a deep, troubling psychosexual secret? Director Edward Dmytryk (The Caine Mutiny), who also cowrote this Euro-pudding coproduction, tosses in a bit of all three as he barrels through his reign of terror. He even attempts to milk laughs from a few of the executions, but despite its upbeat pace it drags through unnecessary exposition and dull, dead patches of life-size kewpie doll Heatherton padding around his castle. Richard Burton struggles with a hoary stage beard and a dull screenplay that labors under the pretense of wit to deliver a bored performance. This 1972 production gets some mileage from its guest cast (most of whom offer a tantalizing flash of flesh before succumbing to the Baron's homicidal impulses), but winds up as lifeless as Burton's vacant, weary stare. --Sean Axmaker
