3.0 out of 5 stars OF ANOTHER TIME, October 14, 2008

This review is from: Burning Hills [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Having Natalie Wood and Tab Hunter star in this movie represents the thinking of another time, 1956, a time when Hollywood cast actors who were popular in films based only on that popularity whether they were suited for the roles in the movie or not.

This film used to show frequently on the TNT afternoon Western Theatre at 4:00pm. Though it is an 'ok' western for those of us western fans, it comes up far short of the realism of the book. Louis L'Amour's book of the the same name, THE BURNING HILLS, is of due course much more in depth and also much better. I've been watching ENCORE westerns for the last couple years and do not recall seeing this film play. While it doesn't deserve to be fully forgotten its appearance anytime soon on DVD may be unlikely.

If it comes your way you may want to take 92 minutes and watch, it is at least a 3-star venture.

Best in westerns, pard.

Semper Fi.

3.0 out of 5 stars It'll do!, March 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Burning Hills [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Not-so-bad western with the teen-age idols of the time Tab Hunter and pretty Nathalie Wood. Not better or worse than many of the other B-westerns of the 50's. Tab Hunter is no John Wayne and director Stuart Heisler is certainly no John Ford or Howard Hawks - but on its own terms, it works OK.

This review is from: The Burning Hills (DVD)

"The Burning Hills" is one of those Warner Brothers, made in Cinemascope with my all time favorite male actor Tab Hunter.

His female partner in this western is Natalie Wood who became famous "Rebel Without a Cause" and immortal in the movie history as Maria in "West Side Story".

Co-Stars are: Earl Holliman, Claude Akins, Ray Teal, Skip Homeier - (each of those appearing also in "Bonanza").

DVD:

Still none subtitles available o this Warner Brother Archive Collections.
The Picture Quality is ok/acceptable. Contains some damages and it could be sharper.

Fazit: thrilling western, with very good actors...definitive a MUST have for Tab Hunter Fans
