When I ever heard about
this film I snickered, thinking it was a joke. Clint Eastwood in a
musical? But I kept seeing it recommended on a few lists and decided I
should give it a chance. Some bad movies are a hoot.
Surprise! This movie is great. It’s the musical western about two
prospectors sharing the same woman. The western town of No
Name City is a massive spectacle full of great quirky characters and enjoyable
music. I’m a musical guy so if you don’t like people singing in your
movies for no reason then skip this one but if you like musicals then check it
out. It’s a fun movie that turns out made a lot of money when it came out
(who knew). I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out
how I came to think of this movie as a failed musical because it certainly is
not. Grade: B+
