Movie Reviews of Joe Kidd

Movie Review: The Screenplay to "Joe Kidd"is similar to Leonard's Novel " The Moonshine War"
Summary: 5 Stars

Was Elmore Leonard's screenplay for "Joe Kidd" an adaptation of his
1969 novel,"The Moonshine War"? I had believed this to be the case because the plots in both of Leonard's works are very similar,the only
difference being in both cases the historical periods & land reform vs.
pure Kentucky moonshine.

Summary of Joe Kidd

Clint Eastwood's stardom was supernova, thanks to Dirty Harry; John Sturges, the man behind The Magnificent Seven and a dozen other memorably leathery Westerns, was directing; and Elmore Leonard was the screenwriter. It just goes to show. Joe Kidd is a muddle and a drag, the shoddiest Eastwood vehicle since Rowdy Yates trod in his last cow flop. Kidd, first seen as a duded-up drunk sleeping one off in jail, is supposed to be a horse rancher and an expert tracker--just the fellow a rapacious land-grabber (Robert Duvall committing lazy villainy) needs to chase down the uppity Latino (John Saxon) who's trying to reclaim the grabbed land for its rightful owners. Neither the characters nor the overland pursuit makes any sense, thanks to chasms in the continuity and no direction to speak of. An absurdly arbitrary assault-by-locomotive provides the climax; as Eastwood observed, "Jesus, anything at this point--let's end it." --Richard T. Jameson
