Editorial Review:
Cattle baron, banker and model citizen George McLintock has the world in the palm of his hands. The only thing missing ishis wife who left him two years earlier. In an effort to get his life back, he saves an impoverished widow and hires her as his cook--welcoming both her and her two children into his home. Sparks begin to fly and McLintock's lifestyle changes completely with an unexpected turn of events resulting in brawls, gunfire, an Indian attack, the engagement of his only daughter and the return of Mrs. McLintock. A rowdy western comedy with penty of slapstick to keep things moving.

McLintock! Reviews:
horrible picture quality 
2009-09-05 - The picture looks like a VHS tape of McLintock if someone taped it on cable in 1987. Terrible picture quality, snowy, blurry, very disappointed
McLintock! 
2009-04-30 - Good old movie. One that is hard to find but good to watch over and over again. Picture quality very good. Shipping a little costly.
Different kind of movie by the Duke
2009-01-11 - I know for many that when it comes to the Duke the last movie they might think of is the movie McClintock but for me its the main movie I know him from and I admit that I love it. While John Wayne does show that he can be tough in this movie he shows that he can be very funny and be very good at it. The ability at comedy is only enhanced by Maureen O'Hara who plays McClintock's astranged wife who always seems to have a burr under her saddle but in those quick moments shows that under all her acts of high class that she still is very much like her husband. While some might disagree this film also gives people a small sense of what it was like in the West around the time that the film is taking place. It still is slightly Hollywood glamorized but it shows a more down to earth-type view of the West where you had to work but that doesn't mean you can't have a little fun along the way. This film also shows some of the relations between Native Americans and the American government and how they weren't always the best. This is a very entertaining movie and worthy to be part of any movie collection for those who wish to own it.
quality lacks
2008-01-23 - We were disappointed in the quality of the DVD. The picture quality was lousy. In some places it was downright blurry. In this day of computerization, I would think the movie could've been "updated" as so many others have been. When our eyes started crossing, we decided to stop watching it. We were sorry we spent our money on it.
Love in the Country
2007-09-30 - I can not guarantee the media quality as there is too many bad and mediocre versions floating around and Amazon mixes media reviews. I reserve the star system for the movie as this review may be used for different media.
George Washington McLintock (John Wayne) is one of the founding ranchers in the territory. He has many issues to deal with in a John Wayne fashion. These include dealing with new homesteaders, dealing with displaced Indians, and dealing with his estranged family (Maureen O'Hara and Stephanie Powers) returning for the Fourth of July celebration.
The movie its self is top notch FIVE STAR. John Wayne used most of his standard crew (they can be seen in other John Wayne movies) and that formula plot that makes his movies great. The mud fight is one of the best parts. See John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara again in a The Quiet Man (1952)
