      Rio Bravo (1959)

      This is a new film that entered IMDB250 in August 2012. In this month, many movies have entered the list, and IMDB250 has been reshuffled.

      The film tells the story of several police officers dealing with bad guys. In a small western town, the deputy sheriff was addicted to alcohol, causing a commotion in the bar, and the town's bully took the opportunity to kill a person....

      Heroes also have love

      The 100 most beautiful films in the history of film selected by the French "Cinema Manual", this film is one of only three westerns. Although the storyline is a typical Western movie type, the director has added many different elements to it, making this movie affectionate, righteous, loving, fun, and upright, different from those "one cool to the end" westerns. piece.
      It is particularly worth mentioning that the role of the old cowboy added in the film is very cute and talkative all day...

      The returning hero

      "Are you competent?" In Howard Hawks' 1959 masterpiece "The Scared Dragon", John Changs (played by John Wayne) repeatedly asked his partner, facing the fierce Joe and his gang, as long as The slightest negligence pays the price of life. If I had to choose a favorite among Hawks’ countless classics, I would choose "Slaying the Dragon", because just like the cowboys who overcome fear in the movie, every man will find all about growing up here. Mysteries, sincere friendship, loyal love, and...

      A movie full of heart-warming details

      I went to see Dean Martin. The main characters in this film are full of personality and very cute: Sheriff Chance, who is full of responsibility, honest and reliable, but not good at expressing; He once became a deputy sheriff again because of a broken love and excessive drinking. Later, he doubted his worth and blamed himself, but relied on himself to reinvigorate Dude; the old cowboy Stumpy, who is chattering, meticulous, and always amusing the audience; and later joined the clever and...

      [Film Review] Rio Bravo (1959) 7.8/10

      Allegedly, Howard Hawks' jaunty response to the daunting self-centeredness and pessimism permeated in Fred Zinnemann's revisionist Western classic HIGH NOON (1952), RIO BRAVO reunites Hawks with marquee star John Wayne, over a decade after their last enterprise RED RIVER (1948) , the whole enchilada entirely takes place in the titular Texan town and Wayne plays sheriff John T. Chance, who gallantly...

      Similar to High Noon but the complete opposite: Countdown to the Train Vs. Prison Defense, one pushes out, one sucks in. Gary Cooper was thin and nervous, and he wanted help but no one came, and John Wayne was strong and laid-back, and he didn't want to involve others, but there was always someone who offered to help. The colors are black and white versus color, the time is doubled, and several gunfights and several characters are extremely entertaining. Ford defines Westerns, Hawks defines...

      One of the most classic Westerns and one of John Wayne's best, very traditional and very flavorful. The foreshadowing of each character is very long, the sheriff of a small town, an alcoholic who is a deputy sheriff, a lame old man who guards prisoners, a mysterious romantic woman, a villain who does many evils, condensed all Western movies....

      The acting is superb especially the babbling lame old man and the romance of the last man is moving but the plot drags a bit for a western and John Wayne always seems to be playing the same...

      The only thing that the whole film can't compare to "Guanshan Feidu" should be that the heroine is too soy sauce. But she is also a dusty woman. The heroine in "Red Galloping Dragon" looks much more sexy and sultry than the one in "Guanshan...

    Evaluation action

    The film is a classic Western film with a complete structure. The final shootout of the hostage exchange scene is realistic and exciting. The character depiction is rough but fine, and the interpersonal relationship is exquisitely described. The theme song is also very touching. ( Timeline Review

      Colorado Ryan: Well, I'll tell you what I'm a lot better at, Mr. Wheeler... that's minding my own business.

    • Feathers: Hey, sheriff, you forgot your pants.

    • John T. Chance: You're not as smart as your brother, Joe. He sees Stumpy here sittin' around the corner locked in with you... and if that isn't plain enough, I'll tell you why. If any trouble starts around this jail, before anybody can get to you you're gonna get accidentally shot.

      Stumpy: I can practical' guarantee that!
