Movie Reviews of The Mountain Men
Movie Review: A b-grade version of "Jeremiah Johnson"(even though the storylines are totally different......)
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a really dissapointing film overall. The film has the look of a cheezy 50's b-grade western but was filmed in the late 70's shortly after Robert Redford's classic "Jeremiah Johnson" was filmed. This film is obviously trying to ride the coat tails of that film and it shows in the overall b-grade presentation. The film score is about as hammy as it gets and the acting is simply atrocious, even from the main characters such as Charlton Heston. The native americans are protrayed very poorly here, they are just cookie cutter hollywood stereotypes that have nothing interesting aside from the lame action sequences. This is the sort of film that you would expect the guys from MST3K to be coining classic one-liners at, some of the parts are so bad it turns out to be absolutely hilarious and that is why I give it 2 stars.Movie Review: Not what I expected
Summary: 2 Stars
The movie wasn't bad, just not what I was looking for. It was more of a comedy than anything. Language was a little rougher than I expected as well. I was looking for a good, laid back mountain man/indian movie with a good script and scenery.Movie Review: 1940's Technology
Summary: 1 Stars
This is one of the best under rated movies out there. Charlton Heston and Brian Keith are superb. I have been looking forward to it's release on DVD and how is it released? In fullscreen format. The film opened in widescreen and reverted to full screen at which point I turned it off. The great cinematography has been reduced by two thirds. If I wanted 1940's technology I would only buy films produced before wide screen was available. What is the matter with the studios who ruin good films by eliminating most of the scenery and the action? As I do not watch widescreen format reduced to "fit my TV screen" I intend to return this film, unwatched, to Amazon.Movie Review: The Mountain Men
Summary: 1 Stars
My husband and I were very disappointed with this movie. The best way to describe it is "goofey". I figured with big names like Charlton Heston and Brian Keith (and I'm a fan of both) that this would be a good movie, but it wasn't. Every other word out of Brian Keith was G-- D--- and I mean through the entire movie..well all that we watched anyway. If you want to watch a good mountain man movie, Jeremiah Johnson is the best.
The quality of the DVD itself was great..it's just a bad movie.
Movie Review: Incredible Movie
Summary: 1 Stars
This movie is incredible! The acting, the plot, the scenery, the costumes...it is all outstanding. I just don't understand why anyone would bash this movie. It's a classic mountain man tale, and they hardly come any better.
Oh, and by the way, I just made all that up. This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I can think of nothing that was good about this movie. You want a real mountain man movie, see Jeremiah Johnson.
