Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Blue is not just a bad movie, but a painfully inept one. Rated: 1/4 Oct 23, 2004 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 3/5 Jul 25, 2005 Full Review Michael Szymanski International Press Academy A sort of Romeo and Juliet Western, this stars Terence Stamp as a Mexican bandit who falls for a beautiful woman in the wild West.

Audience Member I think Rex Reed's assessment sums this film up quite nicely, stating "I don't know which is worse - bad cowboy movies or bad arty cowboy movies. Blue is both." Terence Stamp plays a man caught between two worlds, leading a group of Texans against a group of Mexican bandits, the leader of which, Ricardo Montalban, raised him as a youth. That set up had potential for an entertaining melodrama, but the film is so self-serious that it renders the film nearly unwatchable at times. I'm a big fan of Stamp and especially Montalban, but even they can't make this pretentious dialogue work. There is nice picturesque photography by Stanley Cortez, and besides Stamp and Montalban, you also have Karl Malden, but overall this is a western that will not impress the arthouse crowd and will bore casual western fan. You're best off skipping this one. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member What can I say, my dad was an extra in it when it was filmed outside of Moab, Utah.
