Movie Reviews of Will Penny
Movie Review: Heaven help us from newbie Western "afficionados!"
Summary: 2 Stars
Wow, this is truly one of the worst westerns I have ever seen. A "minor classic"? I dont think so. And who cares if Heston "becomes Will Penny"? A solid individual performance but not enough to overcome a weak storyline, and even weaker script.Had the director followed the classic formula and left the ubiquitous Joan Hackett in the background that may have been enough to salvage this turkey. As it is, she occupies way to much of the screen and THAT is a major distraction. But if you like the creeping sentimentality of mush like Rooster Cogburn, the Shoot Out, and that silly out of place "Raindrops" scene in Butch Cassidy then you will probably love this thing.
The DVD transfer is nothing spectacular, I'd give the video/audio *** and the soundtrack gets *. What a dud, I think the producers of Walking Tall used this soundtrack as inspiration. You've been warned. Wish I hadnt bought this.
