Excellent movie. Makes soyboys cry. John Wayne is amazing as well as Ohare. Very funny and a nice getaway from today's plush, commie-ridden limbo of an existence. 🤠

This movie was a typical 60s slap stick comedy but it doesn't play well with Wayne and O'Hara. The audience tolerates Wayne being a cuckold man, but who is the tough rancher in the territory. We spend the entire movie wanting Wayne to just tell his bratty wife off, and spank her. Because of Wayne, it was entertaining and we applaud whenhe finally dumps her in the end, but then the happy ending!

Rather than a serious western, how about a funny one? Staring none other than the famous western actor himself, John Wayne! McLintock, is not a perfect, but a light-hearted, funny movie.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

A very cheesy action comedy that shows more of a funny side to John Wayne's acting.
