Summary: West is the Best!
Review: the first time i saw this movie, i was amazed at how good it was. The special effects, the gadgets, the script, were all great. Will Smith is at the top of his form, and Kevin Kline is having the best time in his double role as Artemus Gordon and the President. I loved the breast touching scene, the opening credits sequence, Artemus and James running like hell through the field, Will Smith vs metal man. The writing committee, composed by S.S. Wilson & Brent Maddock (*batteries not included, Tremors) and Jeffrey Price & Peter S. Seaman (Who Framed Roger Rabbit, How the Grinch Stole Christmas), come up with some very funny scenes and hilarious situations. They have a great sense of humor, as you can also see from their past works. Anyone who doesn't like this movie does'nt have a sense of humor. WWW rules!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Kline, Branaugh connect to the essence of the original
Review: OK, being an AVID fan of the original TV series, I was skeptical at best when I first heard that Smith and Kline were cast in the main roles. I like both these actors, yet I couldn't envision Kevin Kline pulling off Ross Martin's character. Was I ever surprised! What I really liked about this film was that Kline did a fabulous job of portraying the quirky genious of Artemus Gordon. And though the writers took a different tack on Dr. Loveless' half-stature (albeit Arliss instead of Miguelito), it was effective. Both Kline and Branaugh's characters tapped into that sense of inventors of the fantastic that was evident in the series. After all, the original wasn't a far cry from "Gunsmoke" meets "The Twilight Zone". Even the scene where Loveless is spinning around in his wheelchair at his New Orleans party was reminiscent of the reckless abandon of Miguelito Loveless.

Still, the only thing Will Smith had in common with Robert Conrad is that they are both hunks who look great in Western outfitting. It's obvious that Smith is meant to draw the contemporary audience, while in my mind, sacrificing the believability of West by defying historical probability. Come on, that scene at the party where he breaks down the meaning of "redneck" for the guests is ridiculous. The best aspect of Will's character is his banter with Branaugh's Loveless, again true to the original.

Overall, this isn't a great movie, but it is fun. For those old enough to remember the series, I think there are some elements that hold up. For the younger crowd, you may well find it silly, but it's worth a look.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bad movie you say?
Review: Oh please! This was one of the best movies I have ever seen. Will Smith and Kevin Kline are a great team. Well, of course Kevin was the best part of the movie! The only bad thing in the movie was the Rita character. Gah! I just hate her(not the actress, just the character)!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What's all the fuss about?
Review: This is a classic Smith/Sonnenfeld movie! What is everyone complaining about? I must say, I really liked this movie. It had the action and the thrills. Even a few turns! The only minus really is the fact that we didn't get to see enough of Salma Hayek.. But then again, is that possible? :)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No more Mr. Knife-Guy!
Review: What you see above is the onlyfunny one-liner in this terrible movie. Will smith can't act n'or rap so what's the big deal with this guy? Barry Sonnenfeld... well I never liked his movies because they were all sort of cheesy and without any substance at all. Bur with this one he has reached the peak of stupidity. Let me think of something positive about this movie... well the production design is pretty cool and Kenneth Branagh, who plays the bad guy Dr. Loveless is the onla actor who convinced me. Kevin Kline was probably in this movie to earn some money because you can't find any compassion in his acting. If this movie should have been funny, it failed! It's not even entertaining it is just "loveless" scenes put together by random it seems and when Will Smith repeats the same joke 5 times it isn't funnier as if he would have said the line once. Salma Hayek's role would [annoy] every feminist and when Will and Kevin dress as women it is just more pathetic than funny. "Wild Wild West performed by Will Smith" Why does that have to be in the opening credits? Probably to sell some more CDs. stay away from this movie cause it's only gonna make you angry and unsatisfyed.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good Movie? I DON'T THINK SO!
Review: I was really excited about seeing this movie. Some people said it wasgood and others said it was bad. I listened to the people who said itwas good. When it came out on video, I watched with my brother. Itreally stunk. The plot of the movie was very weak, and just to makethings worse, the bad guy was so stupid I knew at the first time I sawhim that this movie wasn't what I thought it was. It's basically aboutsex, breasts, and women's butts. It's a very dissapointing movie. Theonly reason I gave it 2 stars was because it is prettyfunny.

Translation:DON'T BUY THIS....!

Use your money onsomething good like The Matrix or Mission:Impossible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THAT'S WILD WILD ENTERTAINMENT.
Review: Before it came out on video last year, i was hoping they would include the music video after the movie just like they did for MEN IN BLACK, and i must say it was worth the wait. My title for this review says it all.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Terrible
Review: Is it possible to give a movie a rating of less than 1 star? This movie will have to go in the top ten as one of the worse ever made.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: SAVE YOUR MONEY
Review: My expectations were not high when I hired this movie (I declined to see it on the big screen), but I was disappointed nevertheless. The beginning was very slow, and had I not paid $5 I would have stopped it then. It improved slightly as the film progressed, I almost enjoyed it at one point, but not for long enough. It was a very poor idea, and even the best of actors could not have made this one great.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A disastrous movie
Review: If you think Will Smith is a good actor then the movie is for you. The movie is very bad, there is neither acting nor plot in it. The special effets are very weak, when you see the movie you see the blue screen process used for the scenes. If you want to begin a therapy for depression you can watch it.
