Movie Review: This Spaghetti Needs Pepto Bismol
Summary: 2 Stars
Don't expect a comedy in the vein of TRINITY or THEY CALL ME TRINITY. If you do, you are in for a fall. Both of those were silly but redeemed themselves by being entertaining. This one has no such pretensions. It is merely boring.
The story concerns a corrupt mining company out to cheat the local town's folk out of their claims. They do this through intimidation and violence. When a couple of friends get hold of a claim, they put together a plan to secure that claim and those of the rest of the town from the bad guys. To do this, they enlist the aide of a traveling circus to serve as a distraction. They yell, they fight, they wrestle, they shoot and then they do it some more. Its not very exciting cinema.
This production is made worse by the DVD. I suspect that the original film was a rather low budget affair. The DVD, however, is of such low quality that who could really tell? The edges are clipped off, the transfer is grainy and the effect is of someone holding a hidden handycam in a theater trying to bootleg it. IT was not worth the effort.
Spaghetti westerns can be fun. This one, however, needs the Pepto Bismol right from the beginning to drive off the heartburn.
Movie Review: Eastern Western
Summary: 2 Stars
Entertaining, low buget western. Plot a little hard to follow. Not exactly Terence Hill's best movie. Watch it.Movie Review: Highly Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I have yet to actually watch more than the first 10 mins. The quality is so bad I refused to go any further. For the life of me I can see how any Studio worth its salt could release anything so poor; where has "Pride In Your Work" gone. I could hardly make out the actors in this movie.
I skipped forward by chapters just to see if some change had taken place, but to my dismay there was none. I am not one of those critics always writing bad reviews, in fact this is probably my second ever. I just had to warn other buyers so they don't get shafted like I did.
In all fairness the movie itself may actually be great but for me what is the use if its un-watchable. Its almost like a bad bootleg movie (I refuse to watch those too). I am sure they could have spent some more time and money to remaster it and get all the graininess out and bring clarity to this film.
All in all this is just my opinion and I hope it helps someone save their money, however if you don't mind the picture quality get it because I love the Trinity Saga.
Movie Review: This DVD should be sent to Boot Hill
Summary: 1 Stars
This quality of this DVD was terrible. I got it as part of the Trinity 3 pack and I am extremely dissapointed. The 2 others are fine. Boot Hill looks as if someone sat inside a cinema and recorded it from the screen with a 8mm camera in 1970 then completely messed up the editing to boot. Don't buy this or the Trinity 3 pack. If you want the two others thye are also available as a combo. Complete waste of money. I suppose at one time this might have been some kind of movie but this is not.Movie Review: Waste of money. Zero star. I'll never buy any movie made in the 1960's again.
Summary: 1 Stars
This DVD is a waste of money because of 2 things.
1. DVD quality
The quality is terribe. The color looks washed out. The film is grainy. Most of the time it's in zoom mode. So all I can see is the faces and shoulders of the actors even when they're dancing!
2. The plot is boring.
What a waste of money. The only good western film made in the 1960's is "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly"
