Review of The Shakiest Gun in the West (1968) by Bryce C — 19 Jul 2009
A good fun comedic western which pays homage to previous western films. Don Knotts is hilarious as always and pulls of the dentist/gunslinger routine well. Doc the Haywood wears black despite being a hero - perhaps showing how little Dr.
Jesse W. Haywood about the west. The plot feels like some of his other Universal Studios films but still worth the watch since the scenarios and sequences are all pretty much unique. Lots of fun with a catchy opening theme song and more great music by Vic Mizzy.
The closet change scene is especially funny as is the opening dentist school routine.
