Customer Reviews of One-Eyed Jacks
Much ado about nothing. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I SAW A MOVIE WITH SO MANY GLOWING REVIEWS THAT TURNED OUT TO BE SO DREADFULLY DULL. BRANDO DESERVES PROPS FOR HIS AMBITION. CLEARLY,HE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A FILM OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. UNFORTUNATELY THE FILM IS SLOW AND THE SCRIPT FORGETTABLE.AND IT'S HARD TO FEEL ANY SYMPATHY OR HATRED TOWARDS BRANDO'S QUIET "RIO". ONLY CLINT EASTWOOD & CHARLES BRONSON IN SERGIO LEONES "SPAGHETTI WESTERNS" COULD GET AWAY WITH SAYING SO LITTLE IN SUCH A LONG FILM. ALSO, CONTRARY TO WHAT MOST OF THE REVIEWS SAID,THE MOVIE ITSELF BREAKS ONLY A FEW MOLDS THAT WERE TYPICAL OF WESTERN MOVIES. IF YOU WANT TO SEE AN EPIC MOVIE THAT TURNS WESTERN CLICHES ON THEIR HEAD THEN YOU'VE GOT TO SEE "THE GOOD,THE BAD,AND THE UGLY" AND "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST".PREFERABLY IN LETTER-BOX EDITION WHICH TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THE 70mm PANORAMIC CAMERA EMPLOYED TO FULL EFFECT. SOMETHING BRANDO AT THAT TIME CLEARLY COULDN'T DO OR APPRECIATE AS AN ACTOR/DIRECTOR. I'LL TAKE ACTOR/DIRECTOR KEVIN COSTNER'S BEAUTIFULLY FILMED "DANCES WITH WOLVES" OVER THIS ANY DAY.
Some kind of samurai classic???
The theme for this movie could be one of the classic samurai stories. Honor amoung thieves or something. I really enjoyed this movie for its great cast--Brando, Malden, Katy Jurado, Slim Pickens, Ben Johnson and others, the magnificent scenery of the Monterey Peninsula, and the revenge factor. Karl Malden is especially venal in his role as the amoral Dad Longworth, and Brando in his interplay with Slim Pickens is great.
HORRENDOUS DVD QUALITY
I bought this 2003 Westlake Entertainment Group release of One-Eyed Jacks thinking that because of the price, it was the best version of the movie available on DVD. If it is, I'm disgusted. It is not in widescreen and the image is not sharp, much less crisp. I paid about $14.95 for this disc. To my great disappointment it's a horrible transfer. And I don't think I'm being picky. Granted, it is only my opinion, but I was not satisfied with the quality at all. I'm going to wait for the studio that made the film to eventually (hopefully) release a more acceptable version. I give this DVD version one star because zero stars is not an option.
