The Three Musketeers of the West / Tutti per uno, botte per tutti (Bruno Corbucci, 1973)

I do not think their releases so far will be making many peopleā€™s top twenties.

This film is not soooo bad. I kinda liked it to my own surprise, but I donā€™t remember why.

Is it silly? Oh yes, it is, but in an amusing way.

Letā€™s say 4/10 (without any guarantee)

Bruno Corbucci is much better than Sergio Corbucci :smiley:

He he, but he had some talent, as Spara, gringo, spara beautiful demonstrates.
He should have sticked to action films instead of doing all this (lousy?) comedies.

At least 3 Musketeers was better than The White, the Yellow, the Black.
And better than Massacre at Grand Canyon.
And not much worser than Sonny and Jed.

The movie starts in Cheese Valley and that pretty much sais it allā€¦ Three Musketeers of the West is a really cheesy experience :-X. Well, the cast is not bad and Karin Schubert has a nude scene :slight_smile: ! The rest is boring and mostly not funny. Iā€™ve seen far worse though !

I just watched the Dorado release I just got, Iā€™ll be putting up a revieww here shortly. Youā€™re all pretty dead on about it.

that movie was horrible. but the dorado films dvd is really good :slight_smile:

Thatā€™s what I noticed, too. Dorado did an incredible job on this film. I hope that they realize that the majority of fans arenā€™t clamoring for bottom of the barrel comedy shit and they decide to start releasing some better spags.

All opinion I know, but I think Dorado Films have not released a really outstanding western as of yet.

machine gun killers should be on the way though

I watched the Dorado release of this movie some weeks agoā€¦ It was an OK movie but not among the top even within itā€™s subgenre of slapstick spaghetti westerns.

I did notice though that the picture itself was slightly squashed resulting in an elongated picture. Anyone else notice this? And yes I DID remember to put my TV in 16:9 mode so no human error there :slight_smile:

Yes I did notice this aswell.

Oh thanks, then it wasnā€™t just my head playing tricks again :slight_smile:

It seems odd that Dorado wouldnā€™t catch such an obvious error before releasing the movie. I mean it isnā€™t off by much but enough so that I noticed it instantly.

The error can of course be fixed easily if you watch your movies on a computer (screen) but I tend to watch them on a regular TVā€¦

Maybe they are to lazy :wink: .

Well, this oneā€™s not great for sure but Iā€™ve seen worse comedy westerns and the cast make it bearable. Not likely to get a second viewing in a hurry unless I need to watch something with the kids. Oh, but then thereā€™s the Karin Schubert nude scene. :-[

Cocaine itā€™s an expensive vice

very fun movie!! eduardo fajardo never look so funny!

Bruno, credited as master of arms in 3 Musketeers of the West, has a nice role as the leader of Miss Fergusonā€™s escort group who gets involved in a poker game with Eastman. He does seem to disappear during much of the following brawl until the end.

We (and IMDB) have Luis Gaspar as Grabie (?) the leader of the silly pole hopping gang. Luis plays a variety of roles, sometimes in unique make-up, but Iā€™m having trouble seeing him here.

3 Musketeersā€¦ has been updated to the new layout (3.0). Let us know if you can add anything: pictures, posters, trivia, facts, figures, links, etcā€¦
