Red River Reviews
Black and white sensation!
John Wayne's Red River is one of the most exciting and classical westerns of our century. So, if somebody hates black and white, screw them, it's their problem. Don't even review the product, genius! Alongside The Searchers, this is one of the Duke's landmark films. Also, John Wayne was our ultimate hero, prevailing in every gunfight and every story. His acting AND his strength certainly prevail here. Also filled with action packed gunfights and suspenseful scenes. The ending is fine.
The DVD transfer is nothing special, and somewhat grainy at times. MGM DVDS are not known to be the best DVD makers on the market. To shape up this classic western, expect a Criterion Collection re release and enjoy!
One of the best Westerns ever
I think this is my favorite early John Wayne film (it's not exactly early, but it was one of his earlier big hits). This epic story of a Texas cattle drive has all the parts of a western masterpiece--a journey made in the face of insurmountable odds, plenty of gunfighting, and a good, old-fashioned Indian attack. This is one of my favorite John Wayne performances, and the rest of the cast, especially Montgomery Clift and Walter Brennan, create a very dynamic chemistry.
I love seeing John Wayne in these headstrong and stubborn roles. Watching the development of his relationship with Matt (Clift)--the ups, downs, and in-betweens--makes this movie very enjoyable to watch, and very touching at the same time. If you're a John Wayne fan, or a Western fan at all, and haven't seen this movie, you're missing out on one of the greatest Westerns of all time.
