Thanks for the assessment of The Wild Wild West, and I doubt that I will disagree if I actually take a look at it. And I am glad that you also enjoyed and appreciated The Lone Ranger. As you indicated, the film's blend is not perfect, but it manages to tap into some rich cinematic veins and offer more sophistication, depth, and vitality than one would have expected from a summer studio blockbuster. While no masterpiece, THE LONE RANGER was certainly fun - and the Monument valley scenes were quite breathtaking. THE WILD, WILD WEST, however, is is incredibly awful and not worth watching. A truly terrible film. Complete agreement on both, jeffersoncody. And if I may add--as I noted in my earlier post--the climax on the train in The Lone Ranger was absolutely brilliant. What a summer blockbuster should aim at being. |
