Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Goldarned if the whole fool enterprise is not worth the attention of any moviegoer with a penchant for what one actor, commenting on another's Gabby Hayes imitation, calls 'authentic western gibberish.'

One of the funniest awful movies ever made.

fresh:
Although Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder head a uniformly competent cast, pic is handily stolen by Harvey Korman and Madeline Kahn. Kahn is simply terrific doing a Marlene Dietrich lampoon.

It's a crazed grabbag of a movie that does everything to keep us laughing except hit us over the head with a rubber chicken.
