Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press Romance of a Horsethief is a comedy without any feel for comedy. What eventually happens is funny enough but most of the people involved are deadly serious. Mar 29, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Eli Wallach, Yul Brynner! Serio-comedy is an entertaining, fun movie to watch. By the way, what happened to the 46 audience reviews Rotten Tomatoes shows this movie has? How can it have a 33% audience rating when there aren't any? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This film was my family. My great grand parents were form Mlawa and when I first heard Yul Brenner say, " The horse Traders of Mlawa..." a cold chill went down my back Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
