Product Description Bluray Disc
Amazon.com essential video Mel Brooks scored his first commercial hit with this raucous Western spoof starring the late Cleavon Little as the newly hired (and conspicuously black) sheriff of Rock Ridge. Sheriff Bart teams up with deputy Jim (Gene Wilder) to foil the railroad-building scheme of the nefarious Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman). The simple plot is just an excuse for a steady stream of gags, many of them unabashedly tasteless, that Brooks and his wacky cast pull off with side-splitting success. The humor is so juvenile and crude that you just have to surrender to it; highlights abound, from the lunkheaded Alex Karras as the ox-riding Mongo to Madeline Kahn's uproarious send-up of Marlene Dietrich as saloon songstress Lili Von Shtupp. Adding to the comedic excess is the infamous campfire scene involving a bunch of hungry cowboys, heaping servings of baked beans and, well, you get the idea. --Jeff Shannon

Looking for good clean fun? Then, look somewhere else... August 29, 2010 Eric S. Kim (Southern California) This politically incorrect '74 comedy by Mel Brooks is a classic, no doubt about that. It goes way beyond the boundaries of both satire and slapstick. The film satirizes the racism that's found in old traditional western dramas (and in American culture), while it completely avoids political correctness with its raunchy verbal & physical comedy. There are so many memorable moments in this film that it's hard to keep track. Almost everything about this movie is incredibly hilarious (the infamous fart scene, for example). Yes, 36 years have passed, and Blazing Saddles still holds up very well. Even though there are a couple of jokes that don't really work, this film is pure comedy gold. Kudos to Brooks, Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder, Harvey Korman, Slim Pickens, Madeline Kahn, etc.
Grade: 9/10
I love the rental! AND THE PRICE August 23, 2010 It was a nice cheap blu-ray movies that was considered a must see by many of my friends and I got a 48- hour rental for the DVD and it helped me get through the shipping and I loved the movie! GOOD BUY!!!
Fabulous Transfer! August 21, 2010 DMac (Terra Prime) Blazing Saddles has never looked or sounded better! That is of course, if you're able to pay attention to the specs while laughing so hard through the movie. Highly recommended.
