As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     Navajo Joe
1966  NR  WESTERN  1h 33min
CAST— Burt Reynolds, Aldo Sanbrell, Tanya Lopert, Fernando Rey
MUSIC— Leo Nichols (Ennio Morricone)  DIRECTOR— Sergio Corbucci

     Burt Reynolds gets back to his Native American roots in this Wild West revenge tale that more often than not hits a bull’s eye. After Reynolds’ Indian village is slaughtered by bandits led by a prejudiced half-breed Reynolds goes into Rambo mode, taking out the bandits with ruthless determination. Interesting to see Reynolds as the action hero (sans mustache) instead of the romantic hero. Then again, he could have played a “bandit”.
OUR RATING— ***
