Brooks Dunn Video:

Editorial Review:
Mel Brooks scored his first commercial hit with this raucous Western spoof starring the late Cleavon Little as the newly hired (and conspicuously black) sheriff of Rock Ridge. Sheriff Bart teams up with deputy Jim (Gene Wilder) to foil the railroad-building scheme of the nefarious Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman). The simple plot is just an excuse for a steady stream of gags, many of them unabashedly tasteless, that Brooks and his wacky cast pull off with side-splitting success. The humor is so juvenile and crude that you just have to surrender to it; highlights abound, from the lunkheaded Alex Karras as the ox-riding Mongo to Madeline Kahn's uproarious send-up of Marlene Dietrich as saloon songstress Lili Von Shtupp. Adding to the comedic excess is the infamous campfire scene involving a bunch of hungry cowboys, heaping servings of baked beans and, well, you get the idea. --Jeff Shannon

Great movie at an Amazing price.

A blast from the past
2009-12-27 - The best $3 movie I've ever purchased. I hadn't seen this in years and forgot how funny it is. It was fun to share with my teenage kids. Thanks, Amazon.

Pardon Me While I Whip Out This Review
2009-12-23 - It is true that in today's politcally correct world, there would be much hand wringing about this film. But, it is one of the funniest films of all time. Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder are a great comic team. And, the film itself is filled with so many wonderful moments. Harvey Korman and Madeline Kahn are fabulous. This movie showcases Mel Brooks as a director. Unlike some of his later films, he shows more restraint and doesn't try so hard to get the laugh. Yes, they use the "n-word." But, it this movie, in works. And, sometimes, we just take ourselves to darn seriously!
