Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena Reclicando as velhas e mais do que conhecidas gags do Papa-Lguas, este desastre vale apenas pela linda Ann-Margret e pela agilidade impressionante de Douglas aos 63 anos de idade.

John T. H it's like a roadrunner cartoon come to life! also good soundtrack by Mel Tillis. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Caleb W Pacing is all that keeps this live-action, slapstick cartoon from a perfect score. The audacity to pull these scenes together when they have no business existing in the first place beautifully demands your disbelief not only be suspended, but dangled over an active volcano writhing with crocodiles that have frickin' lasers attached to their heads. Just let yourself be a stupidly grinning kid for the runtime and you'll be caught between groans and laughs until the credits roll. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Gigachad escorts sultry temptress across the desert as a man-in-black and Injuns pursue with bad intent. Arnold successfully parries Ann-Margret's lascivious advances as Kirk Douglas looks to get some of that. Paul Lynde's Chief character is fantastic and a particular highlight in an already extremely humorous Western complete with gun fights, horse stunts, and all the classic tropes done in a Looney Tunes-esque fashion. To note: I'm a huge Arnold fan and include this in my "Top 10 list" of his films. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review randall k This is goofy and fun. I always liked it. It's like a Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote cartoon come to life. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A Wile E. Coyote movie come to life! Plus Uncle Bob's film was made the year I was born. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It was funny but kinda boring too Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/29/20 Full Review Read all reviews
