"Rio Bravo" (1954) is a very good western film starring legendary John Wayne. I first time saw it in 2025 and this film surprised me in a good way. At its running time 2 h 20 min this movie did not drag for a minute and i was involved into its story. The story here is simple yet good. Its not just about shoot-em- up type of story, this one involves some themes about alcoholism and more important what leads to it. But don't expect deep analysis of it nor character exploration - at the end of day this is a John Wayne western movie, and a really good one. Acting was good by everyone involved, while Wayne himself is basically playing same character he is always did. Cinematography was good as well directing. Overall, "Rio Bravo" is a good old fashion western starring John Wayne - a one that they don't make anymore. Its old, but its really good and with newly remastered 4K UHD version i was surprised of how much good this film is. Recommended.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Paul D I bought the DVD at Walmart for five dollars after reading the rave reviews. Within a couple of minutes of watching it, I began to wonder if the critics had lost their collective minds. The acting is horrendous. The “stars” look at each other and say their lines as though they were sitting around a table doing an initial read-through. The pacing is cumbersome. I kept waiting for the movie to develop some sense of flow or direction. It never did. It just plodded along. The characters are the dramatic counterparts of stick figures. They are crudely drawn and one-dimensional. I’m a teacher. I have watched middle school kids deliver more believable and engaging performances. This movie came out the year after I was born. I can’t imagine the standards for filmmaking and drama were that much lower then than they are now. I’m tempted to take the DVD back to Walmart and ask for my five dollars back. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review David C In beautiful Technicolor it holds your attention with very interesting characters but doesn't have the most complex story to go with it. Acting is strong and you get to hear Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson sing together. This is a classic western in the best sense.
