5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best of Martin & Lewis, November 7, 1999

This video is hard to find, except through Amazon. Worth the price. Soundtrack is one of the better ones, if you can find it, as well. Dean Martin, for western fans, was a very good gun handler (as well as a fine singer) and you get a glimpse of his skill in this flick. I agree with the previous reviewer, the end credits are fun to watch. As always, the plot of M & L movies are far-reaching, but if you are watching a M & L movie for the plot, go back to reading Webster's Dictionary. If you half-way like M & L, half-way like comedies or half-way like westerns, you'll enjoy this movie. Buy it before it's so far out-of-print that you'll never find it. Enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars You And Me Were Gonna Be Partners, May 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Pardners [VHS] (VHS Tape)

M&L's next to last film is one of their funniest and shows how much better their movies got into the mid 50s. The prolouge even has M&L playing it totally straight. Some great gags and appearances by some familiar Western character actors give this a fine satiric bite. And don't miss the last shot after Dean & Jerry shoot away the THE END title where they talk directly to the audience and imply that they won't break up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pardners, November 12, 2004

This review is from: Pardners [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Pardners" has always been my favorite Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis movie. The combination of this famous team's humor and song, along with a western setting make for an enjoyable time. Some excellent character actors in supporting roles, including Jeff Murrow, add to the western action. I'm glad others have commented on the closing where Dean and Jerry speak directly to the audience about continuing to come and see their films. I saw this in a theater just months before their famous breakup and the irony has stayed with me. Optimist that I am, I kept hoping for M & L to reunite for more films. Never happened, but thankfully we have this and other Martin & Lewis films on tape and hopefully one day, restored on DVDs.
