- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsA hilarious movie with many quotes lines but most importantly a great message about how to treat peoples. A classic that I first watched almost 40 years ago. Was great seeing it for the first time on the big screen and my teenage son saw it for the first time.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsFunny movie in parts. Shows its age. Old so would not work in todays environment with racial language
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsHilarious!! Very eclectic and irreverent but still hilarious all these years!! People seem to forget that Richard Pryor co-authored the script, so I think its fair to blame the racial humor on him!! In any case, this is Mel Brooks, Cleavon Little, Madeline Kahn and Gene Wilder at their best!!! Great cast, great script, well done in every way!!
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsThis should be required viewing in every middle school... with a little history lesson.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsI'm sure Blazing Saddles was hilarious once upon a time, but in 2025, most of its gags aren't very funny.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsMel Brooks' comedy classic (and his magnum opus in my opinion) "Blazing Saddles" never gets old and has certainly stood the test of time. It always impresses me when a comedy can still be funny after repeated viewings. That can certainly be said for "Blazing Saddles" as well as Brook's other movies "Young Frankenstein" and "High Anxiety". The roles are perfectly cast. The late Cleavon Little is nothing short of excellent as Sherriff Bart. The same can be said for the late Gene Wilder as the Waco Kid. This review would not be complete without mentioning the late Harvey Korman as the villain Hedley Lamarr. From the terrific songs ("You'll be surprised you're doing The French Mistake VOILA!), to the great jokes and sight gags, "Blazing Saddles" is a must see that I cannot recommend more. You will not be disappointed. Meeting is adjourned. It is?
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsAbsolute classic Mel Brooks amazingness. Another great cast and hilarious parody that tackles topics ahead of its time.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsOK - it's a western parody and it does a good job in this regard. However the jokes of the 1970s are no longer relevant for a 2020s audience. I understand it was a pioneering comedy act from acclaimed Mel Brooks - and I am a fan of Mel. Just not a fan of the jokes in this movie, and not because of their dark nature. It's more like a good wine that would become better with age, but it's been too long in the bottle and is past it drinking age. The acting was on-point, which is its saving grace.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsHilarious! I haven't laughed this much in years. So offensive but it has heart. Definitely recommend!
