Movie Reviews of Villa Rides
Movie Review: new look at Panco Villa
Summary: 5 Stars
I would actually give this 4 1/2 stars because it's definitely better than 4 stars. With cast of Yul Brynner, Robert Mitchum, and Charles Bronson and written by Sam Peckinpah (wild bunch), my expectations may have been too high. Villa rides moves along well and the chemistry between Mitchum, brynner, and bronson is great. While this may not really be historically accurate in the portrayal of Villa or his band, it's still a fun watch. I'm very partial to Charles Bronson and Robert Mitchum movies so I'm willing to forgive historical inaccuracies for the sake of entertainment and Villa Rides is definitely entertaining. The plot has been covered by other reviewers so I won't bore you with another synopsis. Some interesting moments include the marriage of Pancho Villa to Mitchum's 'love interest'. Seems she's raped by villa's men and the message from Villa is 'I'll marry her to protect her from my men but i will not be a husband in any sense of the word'. Kind of an interesting slant on Pancho Villa, seems Peckinpah figured Villa was more Robin hood than Quantrill or Bloody Bill Anderson. Villa Rides is a great way to pass 2 hours on a rainy afternoon.Movie Review: Finally!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally!! i was waiting for this movie to be on DVD for such a long time, I was afraid it might never happen!
Despite the age and the fact, that this was never the blockbuster it should have been, it is in excellent condition, sound and picture are much better than many others of about the same age!
I highly recommend it to everyone who likes the story of Pancho Villa! And to all the Charles Bronson fans out there!!
Movie Review: VIVA Villa
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes I too have been waiting many years to find one of my all time favorite movies on DVD Thank you. After years of studying the Mexican Revolution and writing a term paper on Pancho Villa, I find that this movie is both a great Action, Adventure Western but also fairly historically accurate.Movie Review: VILLA RIDES
Summary: 5 Stars
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THIS IS A GREAT MOVIE. FINALLY IT WILL BE RELEASED IN DVD. I HAVE A COPY ON VHS BUT IT'S WORN OUT FROM SEEING IT SO MUCH. GREAT, GREAT, GREAT MOVIE. ACTION, COMEDY, IT HAS IT ALL!!!Movie Review: Best movie on Pancho Villa
Summary: 5 Stars
A gritty tale of Pancho and his minions. The film does stray somewhat from the facts. Charles Bronson gives a great portrail of Rodolfo Fierro. I think it is his best role in a western.
