Review of ¡Three Amigos! (1986) by Adam D — 17 Nov 2009
An epic landscape of events and an exquisite tapestry of characterizations.
As filmmaking and storytelling, The Three Amigos remains a bravura piece of work, its set pieces, dialogue and performances entrenched cinematic icons.
It could be argued that John Landis's film both an art movie and a commercial blockbuster, marked the dawn of the age of the mega-movie.
Like Citizen Kane, The Three Amigos doesn't age.
It's one of those sublimely rare movies in which every element (casting, acting, directing, script, cinematography, score) comes together.
[All these quotes are actually taken directly from reviews of 'The Godfather. The Three Amigos is actually as dated, simple and forgettable as they come.However, it did feature a singing bush. That's gotta be worth 3 stars in anyones book].
