Leaburn O Keaton at his best. The amazing thing is that slapstick is centred on one premise alone but it manages to faultlessly carry the film for an hour or so without being boring. The capers remain funny over 100 years later. Watched on Amazon Prime. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Audience Member This satirical Hatfield–McCoy feud motion picture is called Our Hospitality. It's the story of Willie McKay (Buster Keaton) being in love with a Canfield (Natalie Talmadge) and her family is obviously upset by it. It is my hospitality to say that this movie is really fantastic. The film had beautiful cinematography. Buster Keaton's performance in this movie was fantastic as well. The visuals that were in this film (preferably when Keaton swings trapeze-like on a rope, catching Natalie Talmadge). Buster Keaton's Our Hospitality is a thrilling yet hilarious film that is quite honestly so unique.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/22 Full Review Ethan S What a great picture. Excellent sight gags mixed with some hair-raising stunts. The sections featuring the very primitive train would be revisited in Keaton's equally excellent film The General a couple of years later. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/21 Full Review William L A simple but classic and tremendously influential Keaton comedy, notable for its integration of real narrative into the genre. Though painfully sluggish in its establishment of the narrative, Our Hospitality gradually finds a much more up-tempo pace and sustains it. The quality of the physical comedy is not as high as in later Keaton masterpieces like The General (there is definitely more of a reliance on earlier slapstick), but his deadpan expression still has the same winning qualities. You can't sleep on the quality of the miniatures and dioramas, either. Without Our Hospitality, there is no Laurel & Hardy, Marx Brothers, or the top later works of Chaplin. (4/5) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/21 Full Review HHACF - (18/1001) O filme baseia-se em diversas situações cômicas, como o funcionamento do trem da época, as tentativas de assassinato contra o personagem de Keaton, suas fugas. Há também certo teor dramático, sobretudo no prologo e ao final. As situações inusitadas são tratadas como naturalidade, de modo que o expectador ri espontaneamente do absurdo das situações. Muito do humor gira em torno de tombos e quedas, o que talvez já tenha perdido seu apelo. Sendo um filme de 1923, boa parte dos elementos de Our hospitality foi revisitada nos 100 anos desde seu lançamento: pode ser considerado um antecessor direto das comédias em que alguém tem que conhecer a família do seu par. Apesar dos ritmo lento e das piadas já conhecidas, consegue divertir. É relativamente curto, com uma trama bem construída e com algumas tomadas em plano aberto muito bonitas.
