4.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE VERY BEST!, August 26, 2000

By

This review is from: Carry on Cowboy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

A highly amusing comedy and one of the very best entries to the Carry On series. The historical ones were generally regarded as the best in the series and this one is exceptionally good ranking alongside Cleo (1964), Don't lose your head(1966), Screaming (1966) and Up the kyber (1968) in terms of quality. The players all take on surprisingly realistic American accents and the whole scenery and costumes make this a little more beleavable than ususal. The best players are Sid James as the rumpo kid in one of his best roles in the series, Jim Dale, Joan Sims and Kenneth Williams. This was probably the most darkest and violent of all carry On films made but the shoot out scene at the end is wonderfully staged. A very good comedy and a classic in the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars This spoof of the wild west is excellent., November 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Carry on Cowboy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One of the best! This movie cannot be missd. A great cast and a great story make this Carry On a classic that can be watched again and again and again. Jim Dale is great as the hero and Sid James is brilliant as the bad guy.

The movie starts off just like any western with the 'riding into town scene' and one of the funniest moments in the movie occurrs in the first bit of dialouge when the Rumpo Kid (Sid James) has just killed three cowboys that were walking towards him. He then says with an american accent, "I wonder what they wanted." The rest is a wild ride with mix ups, great comedy and adventure.

This would have to be the best costume Carry on next to Carry on Cleo.

5.0 out of 5 stars This spoof on cowboy movies is great fun, January 30, 1999

This review is from: Carry on Cowboy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The plot involves an Easterner who accepts a job in the West and finds his job description puts him at odds with most of the town. Three women want to help him and each declares her interest with the prefix "we go together like..." [visualize the women for yourself] -- [a] ham and eggs [b] peaches and cream [c] syrup and pancakes. It was years ago that I watched this movie and I still smile recalling the hi jinx and farce.
