Movie Reviews of The Reivers
Movie Review: The Reivers
Summary: 5 Stars
Picaresque, whimsical tale benefits from Rydell's warm yet keen sense of nostalgia in portraying a charmingly innocent period, not to mention a refreshingly atypical McQueen performance as a sweet, lovable rogue. Inspired, light-hearted support from co-star Crosse earned him an Oscar nod, along with John Williams's jaunty score. (Note: though the motley trio do spend time in a Memphis "bawdy house", the sequence is handled with sufficient delicacy to make the movie appropriate for older children.)Movie Review: One of Steve McQueen's best!
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw The Reivers at the beginning of the '70s and loved it. Over the years, I've always thought that it was, by far, Steve McQueen's most entertaining movie. The storyline, performances and cinematography are splendid. Burgess Meredith's narration is superb. This is a movie that makes you lose yourself and feel that you are there. This is also my second purchase of The Reivers. My first copy was a VHS video. I lent it out and the borrower loved it so much he never returned it.Movie Review: This is one of my favorite movies!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so happy when I saw this movie was on DVD. I have a VHS copy, but my VCR does not work any more. This is what I call a "feel good" movie. The cinematography is beautiful, and I love the music. One of the main reasons I like this movie is because Steve McQueen looked like he was happy in it. I can watch this movie over and over again. It has no heavy message -- it is just a beautiful, happy movie.Movie Review: Reivers Movie Review
Summary: 5 Stars
I have looked for this movie for years. It was filmed in my hometown in Mississippi. I was in the 9th grade when they came to town to film this.
It was better than a carnival or fair. People talked about how things were back then.
The movie was in excellent condition. Played flawlessly and was very enjoyable.
Movie Review: A wonderful original music soundtract
Summary: 5 Stars
I agree with many of the other reviewers that this is a very well made film. It has one additional overlooked attribute -- it has a marvelous music soundtract and was the first film score written by John Williams, who went on to write scores for Star Wars and many more films.
