Amazon.com essential video:
Mel Brooks scored his first commercial hit with this raucous Western spoof starring the late Cleavon Little as the newly hired (and conspicuously black) sheriff of Rock Ridge. Sheriff Bart teams up with deputy Jim (Gene Wilder) to foil the railroad-building scheme of the nefarious Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman). The simple plot is just an excuse for a steady stream of gags, many of them unabashedly tasteless, that Brooks and his wacky cast pull off with side-splitting success. The humor is so juvenile and crude that you just have to surrender to it; highlights abound, from the lunkheaded Alex Karras as the ox-riding Mongo to Madeline Kahn’s uproarious send-up of Marlene Dietrich as saloon songstress Lili Von Shtupp. Adding to the comedic excess is the infamous campfire scene involving a bunch of hungry cowboys, heaping servings of baked beans and, well, you get the idea. –Jeff Shannon

- Incredible picture quality on blu-ray!
I didn’t have high expectations for picture/sound quality of Blazing Saddles on blu-ray. I mean, it’s such an old movie, how good could it be?
I was actually shocked to find it has excellent picture quality …amazing picture quality, considering the movie was filmed in 1974! The edges are sharp, the colors are rich, I have never seen Blazing Saddles like this before. The audio is also very good.
If you’re a Mel Brooks fan, this one is well worth getting on blu-ray.
Rating:
- One of the funniest movies ever made
You can’t go wrong having this movie in your collection. It is funny every time you watch it.
Rating:
- Great Mel Brooks flick
This movie is just as funny as it was when it first came out over 30 yrs ago. I decided to get the DVD after several years of having 1 liners from the movie coming up in casual conversation. This is a classic and only Mel Brooks could produce a movie that mocks racism this way. Executive at studios today would probably be afraid to release a movie like this.
Rating:
- classic comedy
Blazing Saddles is such a classic. From “candygram for Mongo!” to “it’s twoo! it’s twoo!” it’s nonstop laughs.
To save money, the railroad needs to go through the town of Rock Ridge, and governor’s right-hand man, Hedley–not Hedy!–Lamarr (Harvey Kormann) come up with a solution to get the residents to leave: hire a black sheriff (Cleavon Little).
When Bart (Little) gets to his office, he discovers the Waco Kid (Gene Wilder) sleeping off a drunk in his cell. They become … Read More
Rating:
- An old favorite with new sparkle.
This irreverent movie, is one of my favorite movies of all times. I think it is Mel Brooks’ best; and he holds nothing sacred here. You’ll laugh from the first scene until the final scene. The picture and sound are superb on this completely remastered HD-DVD. So… pop this in your player, settle in, and wonder “What in the wide, wide world of sports is a goin’ on here?”
