Movie Reviews of Sextette
Movie Review: a lot of "tette" and no "sex"
Summary: 3 Stars
ONLY for Mae West 'FANS' -- mostly unfunnnnny - even supporting players - buy if you just want "all" the great lady's movies. I love her even at her worsttes.Movie Review: Painful to watch...
Summary: 2 Stars
If you're a big fan of Mae West,I suggest you get her movies when she was in her prime,but not when she was in her 80's and still acting like she was back then.Why would a 30 something year old man like Timothy Dalton be attracted to an 80 year old woman in the first place?? An 80 year old woman arousing a young man?? Yeah,right..If you like camp or bad movies,then this right up your alley.This is bad all the way around.Bad comedies and bad musicals don't go together for one thing.Maybe separately,but not this.Do you really want to see Mae and Timothy sing "Love Will Keep Us Together"?? Not me.Everyone involved ought to be ashamed.From Alice Cooper to Regis Philbin to Tony Curtis to the director and the writer.No wonder this movie bombed.It belongs right along side "Can't Stop the Music".See Mae West when she could pull off the sexual innuendos back in her prime,but this?This is plain embarrassing and painful..YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!Movie Review: WHo Said Life ENDS After 80?
Summary: 2 Stars
When most people over 80 are locked in old age homes, orsitting on a chair 24/7, or layin in bed all day living their final years, In SEXTETTE, Mae West proved that "Life Doesnt END
after 80!" Although in most parts she looked and walked and
talked like is she was a zombified embalmed corpse, she looked
like she was enjoying herself. The movie is stupid and silly, but
it is amazing to watch Mae in her 80's, with all those heavy
costumes strugglin thru her lines. Above all, the movie is just
'silly fun'. You'll enjoy it.
Movie Review: BAD DVD
Summary: 2 Stars
Well, ya get what you pay for! And ten bucks ain't gonna get ya much! Not in this case anyway. Watchable print but faded color and really BAD sound with loud buzz. But if your a West fan you better grab it. It is doubtful that this film will ever be re-stored.Movie Review: Don't go West, young man
Summary: 1 Stars
Mae West became a sex symbol not because of the way she looked but because of the way she spoke. Her unique delivery coupled with memorable, highly quotable double entendres ("Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?") were the highlights of her early-'30s movies. In SEXTETTE (1978), her final film, a fossilized, eighty-something Mae delivers the same kind of dialogue that made her famous way back when, and the result is a textbook example of how not to grow old gracefully.
In this West-scripted endeavor, Mae immodestly casts herself as sex queen Marlo Manners, the World's Most Desirable Woman (yikes!), who can't seem to keep men from pursuing her, even when she's on her honeymoon. The once-in-a-lifetime supporting cast includes Timothy Dalton, Tony Curtis, Ringo Starr, George Hamilton, Alice Cooper, Dom DeLuise, Keith Moon, George Raft, and Regis Philbin. People say you can't go home again and it's true; embarrassingly, the respirator-ready West apparently felt she never left home to begin with. Yet, no matter how bleak a picture I paint, this is one movie some folks will insist on experiencing for themselves. Good luck.
