Movie Reviews of Mogambo

Movie Review: African adventure and sizzling romance
Summary: 5 Stars

Clark Gable is an animal trapper in Africa to bring back alive the various animal catches for the zoos. Ava Gardner comes upon him and his crew thru a boating accident and of course, she is smitten by the handsome Gable. But, it does not stop there as Grace Kelly, an anthropologist, and her husband, come to Gable's camp asking him to take them into the land of the giant Apes on a safari. Gable is smitten by Kelly and agrees to take them to the land of the giant Apes, and Ava Gardner shows her jealosy of his intention for Grace Kelly as she goes along on this adventure.

There is great cinema shots of the African safari lands and has plenty of action with the various wild animals in it. The movie is an adventure, entertaining movie even if the love triangle was not part of it.

Clark Gable is intent on luring Grace Kelly away from her husband and has a love encounter with her. The drama intensifies as they get to the land of the Giant Apes when Gable plans to make his move to take her away from her husband by telling him that he and Grace Kelly are in love.

There is great tension and action when Gable's party encounters the apes.

The twist comes at the end as the love triange plays out in a very unique way. A very entertaining movie that has been time tested. And one cannot go wrong with stars of this magnitude including the one and only Clark Gable, as handsome as ever, though older, and two beautiful costars such as Grace Kelly, and Ava Gardner.

Movie Review: Magam, Bo??
Summary: 5 Stars

the magnificent Ava Gardner, with Gable and Kelly along for the ride, make this a delight.....not exactly Out of Africa in scope or style, it is 50's moviemaking at its best.....great Africa sights, an ok story, and the fabulous Ava will provide any but the dullest with memorable fun.......can't be helped deficit is lack of commentary tracks by stars and directors......strongly recommended to anyone over 18........

Movie Review: Mogambo DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw this one in the theater when I was a little girl. I wasn't always sure what was happening (between the adults) but now that I do I can watch this one, easily, once a month. The story and the scenery in Africa are unsurpassed. The actors need no introduction to most viewers and the young ones who don't know them are in for a treat. This movie would be a fine, "How do you do".

Movie Review: Outstanding!
Summary: 5 Stars

Clark Gable has got to be the best actor ever! He has charm and believability throughout ALL of his movies. Mogambo was full of intrigue and kept my interest from start to finish. Ranks high in my classic library of DVD's.Worth the time to take out and watch! Arrived in a timely manner and in great shape!

Movie Review: Gable Rules as Ford Looks On
Summary: 5 Stars

Great to have MOGAMBO on DVD. It looks good. Not your usual John Ford film from my view. Clark Gable is the man and really he seems to have more effect on the look of this film. Good loves story flows tailored for Gable no doubt. Good one in all.
