Movie Reviews of Cat Ballou (Special Edition)

Movie Review: Classic Comedy western
Summary: 5 Stars

This was one of the first movies I saw as a youngster,I laughed then and after watching it recently I laughed again. Sure,its no masterpiece but it has outlasted other so-called comedy westerns. The DVD is a superb transfer and I particularly like the idea of Original Ratio/Full Frame options some DVD,s are doing at present,at least the buyer has an option. There are also some nice extras and this should be a must have in any DVD collection. The highlights for me are the crisp photography,Lee Marvins performance and the unforgettable theme song. Enjoy

Movie Review: possibly the funniest comedy ever!
Summary: 5 Stars

I worked my way through college in the sixties as a projectionist in a movie theater, saw hundreds of movies multiple times, and consequently became rather critical of their quality. Most movies couldn't hold my interest for even one viewing; Cat Ballou was the exception. This movie is well written, well cast, well acted and well directed. Lee Marvin was amazing. And how do you get a horse to lean against a building with its legs crossed? Cat Ballou sets the standard by which others should be judged.

Movie Review: One of the Classics
Summary: 5 Stars

This is truly one of the funniest (and funnest)western spoofs ever made. Lee Marvin is at his best, and Nat King Cole and Stubby Kaye will leave you singing "Cat Baloooooo" to yourself for weeks. As an editorial aside, reviewers who have rated this flick down based on Jane Fonda's appearance in it are asses. I didn't think much of John Wayne's politics, but I sure enjoyed his movies.

Movie Review: A childhood favorite
Summary: 5 Stars

Okay. So I have a campy side to me. Sure there are plenty of problems with this script and nevermind that Cat Ballou and her wacky crew left a whole town jobless and destitute, but the whole thing was just so much fun. I must've watched this movie a hundred times as a child. I thought Jane Fonda was gorgeous and Lee Marvin was a hilarious drunk. Highly recommended.

Movie Review: The Cat's Meow
Summary: 5 Stars

An all-time comedy classic. Watch it and see why so many movies have stolen ideas from it. (Including "Something About Mary"). The script, the acting and the singing of Stubby Kay and Nat King Cole are all superb. A must own for any movie buff.
