Review of The Quiet Man (1952) by Moema D — 25 Aug 2010
The Quiet Man is by no means a truly awful movie, but at the same time I don't understand what the big goddamn deal was. The story was fun (as were many moments) up until John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara's wedding then I just found myself mostly annoyed.
The fight scene at the end was chaotic (not even fun chaotic, just messy chaos) but overall I just didn't feel like this was a John Ford movie. Sure, some of the scenery was beautiful (and by scenery, O'Hara is included) but this movie is seriously overrated.
