Summary: A Pleasure
Review: I enjoed this flick very much. The cast was absolutely superb, and they had a charisma that couldn't be beat. I laughed so hard, but was also sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what trouble happen to hinder the characters next.

Summary: Maverick, Gibson's Best
Review: I enjoyed this movie (although three hours long) and thought it to be very funny. Gibson was terrific as Bret Maverick, Foster was spectacular and funny, and James Garner played a fine part. I never knew the wild west could be a FUNNY thing! After you watched this movie, I'd bet YOU would want to be in the wild west, that's how good it is.

Summary: A DVD review
Review: I got this DVD because I like Mel Gibson, westerns, and it's on Amazon's essential video list. I'm not sure why it's on the list. It doesn't make mine. Regardless, the DVD is adequate. No amazing extras. Some production and cast notes that gave a few pages of information but nothing all that interesting. One interesting item for me was that a few scenes seemed to be shot in Yosemite Valley, but the location notes never mentioned the Valley being used as a location. I wondered if it was just a painted backdrop?

Summary: Bringing the Funny
Review: I haven't seen this movie since it was released in the theaters, and I happened by it while shopping. On a whim, remembering that I liked it (and am a Jodie fan) I got it.I forgot how hilarious MAVERICK was, and how much of that was because of Foster. Her nack for timing and physical comedy is truely inspired, and her and Mel Gibson's chemistry is outstanding. The innuendo was both hilarious and constant. And, honestly, who saw the end coming? Concidering how many shows are being made (badly) into film these days, MAVERICK stands far above the rest. In being the first to do it, and the only one to do it well. Light hearted, sexy and funny, it's sure to entertain. I definantly recommend MAVERICK for some light hearted fun.

Summary: Western Light: Too Light
Review: I rented this film after being impressed by James Garner's portrayal of Woodrow F Call in Streets of Laredo. Most of the cast seem to be having a great time but too many jokes fall flat. Neither Gibson and Foster seem to have a clue playing Western characters. Like Billy Crystal in City Slickers with none of the irony. The film is lighthearted with chuck wagon loads of old TV western cliches. Guns being shot off peoples hands, Mel rescuing a run-away stagecoach, and a Royal Flush winning hand. Yawn. (Which shows how brilliant Spielberg was in Raiders of the Lost Ark, bringing a fresh variation to a tired action sequence.) Its all done by the numbers with no inspiration. If you're looking for a film about clever slight of hand and humourous double crosses you're better off watching The Sting with Newman and Redford. The movie was a great re-union of old TV western stars, country singers, and modern actors. I wish they remembered to make a movie worth renting.

Summary: Very Good
Review: I think this is a very well done film. It's very funny, but at the same time, there's no humor in it that would be very inapropriate for children, making it a film good for the whole family. Brett (Or should I say Bert?)is just such a charming character, and yet, at the same time he has obvious flaws, making him much more down to Earth than some heroes. The DVD doesn't have too many extras... Biographies on all the main actors, and that's it. Of course, this is my first DVD, so I can't properly compare... What else can I say? It's a great movie, and certainly one worth at least renting.

Summary: Maverick Rocks
Review: If anyone saw the recent movie Shangai Noon, and you liked it, there is a better movie than that. It is called Maverick. Maverick is one of the best movies out there. You might think of it as a cheesy western before seeing it, like I thought it would be, but it is not. It is one the greatest rides you'll take in front of your tv sets in a long time. You see a new side of Mel Gibsons humor. And some of Jodie Foster's even a little too. The funniest person that steals the show, has got to be Ghramn Green as the indian. I didnt know how funny an actor he could be. Rent it, it is awesome.
