Trivia

This 1978 western-comedy film's main movie poster ran with a tagline "A blazing saga of Hot Lead and Cold Feet" which was designed to connect via the word "blazing" with Mel Brooks' earlier 1974 box-office western-comedy movie Blazing Saddles (1974) which had been made and released about four years earlier.

Wacky but fun
6 April 2014 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Much of the movie is not very realistic, some of it's rather crazy, especially the constant shooting, fighting and destruction. They are constantly shooting, but not hitting each other. They're also constantly getting knocked out or injured, but are completely normal again shortly after wards. But it's entertaining and a lot of fun, they must have gone through a lot of work and money to achieve all this. The acting is pretty good, and rather funny. It's impressive that Jim Dale played 3 separate roles, you can't tell that it's him when he plays the old man.

It's great comedy, and while it's not very realistic, there are some good lessons with it. I like the unity and fearlessness of the children, and that helping Eli is all that matters to them. It kind of gives a sense that helping others is much more important than money.
