Customer Reviews of Shalako
Interesting but offbeat Western 3.5 Stars Based quite rigidly on the best selling novel by Louis L'Amour, we find Sean Connery in the lead role here complete with Scottich brogue, that sits OK despite being a dusty, rough around the edges hero. Not often seen on reruns, and I don't know why this film didn't get much exposure, as many people I know haven't seen it, or even heard of it. I'm tempted to say at this point, that this is not a movie that will live long in the memory, but don't be put off - it has a strangely compelling quality and realistic feel, and a better than average script. There a number of violent scenes, most notably the grissly demise of one of the lead characters (I won't say who) at the hands of a vicious band of Indians, and you could draw some comparisons with the content of movies like "Soldier Blue" although that came along several years after this. On the whole this is a good solid western, with great acting pretty much all round, the 60's film style is evident in Ms Bardot's stunning appearance throughout, despite her supposedly being in the dusty back of beyondville, but this is nothing to get too upset about. I was pleased to see this come to the DVD market, and hope it will reach the wider audience it deserves. Enjoy
Bardot and Connery Rule!!Great Classic Western!!
Brigette Bardot and Sean Connery Rule in this great classic western.It's a must see!!
Connery better than expected
Sean Connery does a much better job in this western than I could have imagined. He plays his role in a Randoph Scott fashion. At this point of his career Connery is ruggedly handsome. He even speaks more clearly than he usually does. Bardot plays the role of a countess with grace and style. Her usual child-like qualties which set her apart from other screen beauties arn't apparent here.
The entire cast is excellent, however, the script is flawed and far fetched so while there are many good moments the picture ultimately doesn't click. This doesn't mean it is a poor movie. It simply is another run of mill western.
