Movie Reviews of The Professionals
Movie Review: The Way It Should Have Been
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like adventure stories with well developed characters, then this is a great flick for you. I have seen this one probably 100 times since it was first released and I still love it. It is right up there with the Magnificent Seven, Tombstone, The Wild Bunch, and The Long Riders. The comradery of Lancaster and Marvin is subtle and satisfying. Woody does a better than average negro bounty hunter and Ryan is the guy you want to punch for being such a sissy through most of the damn film. Palance's speech about the Revolution is truly inspired and let's not forget C.C. who "never says no." There are enough witty lines, gun battles and chase scenes to satisfy even the most hardcore adventurer and last but not least, the final line from Lee Marvin to Mr. Grant. That alone is worth the cost of the film. So put on your old campaign hat and a bandana.... then sit back and enjoyMovie Review: Simply Great
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my favorites, Apart from being the title, "The Professionals" could just as easily refer to the cast and crew. It has all the elements of a great movie of any genre. Great actors - well written script with some surprises - good action scenes - a complementry musical score - good direction and cinematography - one could not ask for more from a genuinely entertaining movie. Even the viewers that do not like Westerns will enjoy this film.Note: Lee Marvin's closing line is a classic example of Marvin at his best. In a few simple words it conveys a wide range of emotions and confirms the character's personna.
Movie Review: goold ole fashin westen
Summary: 5 Stars
this film was always a favoriite of mine due to the fact it's storey is around world war 1, and the introduction of the horsless carraige and the introduction of modern weapons such as the water cooled machine gun. lee marvin, and burt lancaster are great, always standing in as a support character is skinny robet ryan, whose schedule should have been busy, as most of these actors were doing other films as well. jack palance, get special mention as well. not a academy award winner, but a darn good action packed movie.Movie Review: 100 proof women, 90 proof whiskey & 14K gold
Summary: 5 Stars
A great western flick. My only gripe with it was the blackout of Claudia Cardinale's tatas. But all in all, the casting is perfect--Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster are the perfect duo of tough guy and suave killer. "The Professionals" has great, humorous dialog, exciting action, and Robert Ryan. Come on, what more do you want out of a western? Get your hands on this classic.Movie Review: The Professionals
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are looking for a classic western, this is it. You get good guys, bad guys, burning sun, tequila, and the Mexican Revolution for the backdrop. It also contains one of the best closing lines in the movies.
