Mcclintock (1963) (Sp)  Rating: Rating:  - A Classic John Wayne MovieOne of my favorite old movies of all time. My husband and I watch it all the time. There are so many funny parts. Definitely not a movie for the politically correct. The husband "spanks" the wife at the end. But you laugh anyway. Movie like this would never be acceptable today. Great movie! Rating: - The "authentic collector's edition" gives us what we should've had for YEARS.I've always loved this movie, but I've always been disappointed at the difference in quality of it on DVD, which thankfully has been changed with the "authentic collector's edition". We have the same fantastic and fun storyline and memorable characters, but AT LAST we have the wonderful quality in picture and sound that all the previous DVD editions lacked. The movie has been lovingly remastered and is in widescreen format, which is a godsend from the previous full screen cuts which only show half the scene. Now we finally get the full picture and the movie is better for it. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME BUYING ANY OTHER DVD VERSION OF "MCLINTOCK!" This is the only one you need to get. Trust me. Rating: - Some things just make you feel good!This is one of my favorites that the Duke made. All of his films have a lesson and reminder that is just as relevant now as it was in our past. Yes, it is just a movie but one that stirs the fire for good things and that is what we need. Rating: - One of the better John Wayne motion picturesI would note that people who buy cheap Asian knockoffs from an unknown source should not write Amazon reviews that criticize the quality. This review is for the authorized DVD as listed on Amazon. If you have another version, please save your complaints for some other Forum. This is one of the better John Wayne motion pictures. The character McLintock is an older rancher who has a charitable attitude. He is friends with Indian chiefs, even though they tried to kill each other earlier in their lives. He warns homesteaders that land is not suitable for farming, and hires one young man who needs to support his mother and sister. He has a problem with his wife for reasons not given, and a daughter who just returned from college back east. The story holds your interest as he deals with Indians, homesteaders, his wife, and his daughter. He is an environmentalist of sorts who plans to leave most of his ranch to the government to use as a park. |
