Customer Reviews of The Outlaw Josey Wales
One of the great westerns Until Dances with Wolves and then Eastwoods own Unforgiven this was the best western post 1970. Eastwood plays the title role who is a certainly a match for the man with no name, but unlike that character Josey Wales is not amoral, in fact quite the contrary. <
> <
>This is the first movie that Eastwood directed that made people sit up and notice him as a filmmaker rather than an action hero. Some classic trademark Eastwood lines are in this film, perhaps the best of which is: <
> <
>Bounty Hunter - "You're wanted Wales" <
>Josey Wales - "Reckon I'm right popular. You a Bounty Hunter?" <
>BH - "A man's got to do something for a living these days" <
>JW - "Dyin' ain't much of a livin' boy" <
> <
>The difference with this film (over say the spagetti westerns) is that Eastwoods character gradually becomes part of a family like gang of people. Most noteably an aging Indian (played by Chief Dan George) which makes for some wonderfully understated comic moments. One of the strengths of this film is you do care what happens. Yes there are gun fights and people are killed but in the end there is a sort of reconcilliation. <
> <
>Already by this stage of his career Eastwood had a regular team around him to make the film. Standout amongst which is Bruce Surtees cinematography. This really is beautiful looking film. <

Skip the politics, enjoy the movie
Reading many of these reviews you can't escape the infantile need so many dopes have to stake this movie with their own personal lingering issues about a variety of issues; U.S. foreign policy, the Civil War (or in their vernacular The War for Southern Independence), politically correct thinking and more. For the love of God, just enjoy the movie!
<
>This is one of Clint's finer moments and is an irresistable blend of action, character, humor, and glorious Western eye candy. The dvd that I purchased was ten bucks and featured two documentaries about it, the first time I'd ever seen such behind-the-scenes bits about this great movie. A pretty good deal for the price.
<
>Avoiding five stars because it is just a bit too long, due largely to the wholly cutting room floor scenes with the dreadful Sondra Locke and the credibility straining manner in which Josey avoids getting shot for the most part, it is still a highly enjoyable ride.
<
>If you want to use this as a conduit for your own politics, spare the rest of us your armchair punditry and go start up a blog or start a thread on the Limbaugh website. For those who relish a great action packed Western, rent it, buy it, enjoy it. Clint doesn't get much better than this.
One of Clint Eastwood's best action movies
"The Outlaw Josey Wales" gets 4-bones, the highest possible
<
>rating in the "VideoHound's Golden Movie Retriever" book of
<
>reviews. So it's up there in the same rarified atmosphere as
<
>is Casablanca.
<
>
<
>Although a little longer than most movies, it's rich
<
>combination of action and pathos holds your interst. The last
<

<
