Mezzogiorno e mezzo di fuoco Ratings e Recensioni
- Joshua Leach22 ottobre 2025Could never be made in this day and age. Classic as it may be, some people still wouldn't understand the satire. Go Into it with an open heart and you will enjoy it
- Vivian Love13 agosto 2025Aside from the 200 slurs across the movie it's really good. As someone falling into the category of some of the slurs just let it slide for this masterpiece
- Jeff29 marzo 2025They said you was hung? And they was right!
- Steven Schwalger26 febbraio 2026I'll start off by saying this has not aged well... at all. The abundant use of the N word is pretty jaring. If you can get past that this move becomes hilarious.
- Brent Johnson2 gennaio 2026A classic hilarious movie.
- Patrick Oyler2 febbraio 2026One of if not the best movie of all time
- Richard Thornton22 luglio 2025Probably the best Mel Brooks movie. Today’s more squeamish audiences have a hard time connecting or engaging with it.
- parktool6928 gennaio 2026so racist????
- castlegary26 gennaio 2026Very funny in parts others not so much. The opening is great and Madeline Khon cabaret number the best others dumb. Could not get away with some of the stuff said today
- Plexxor the Pretty Good2 giugno 2025Just a classic, don't miss it. In my top 5 movies. John Wayne said his fans would never forgive him if he was in the movie but swore he would be first in line on opening night. He kept his word.
- Luke Monroe25 maggio 2025An amzing comedy, and encapulates an by gone era.
- Juan Manuel Zavala10 gennaio 2026One of Mel Brooks best. A bit outdated to today's standards but still funny. Gene Wilder was the best.
- John Doe2 novembre 2025Blazing Saddles (1974) was written by (((Mel Brooks))), Richard Pryor, Andrew Bergman, and Norman Steinberg-all jewish. The film's overt themes of racial integration, White guilt, and a black sheriff "fixing" a White town can be seen as subversive, promoting multiculturalism and racial mixing. Brooks often used comedy to push social commentary, particularly on jewish-American issues, but Blazing Saddles extends this to racial dynamics. The film's plot-where a black sheriff (Cleavon Little) is appointed to a White town and solves its problems-can be interpreted as a metaphor for jewish assimilation into White America, but also as a vehicle to normalize interracial relationships and challenge traditional racial hierarchies. The film's use of satire and absurdity allowed it to tackle sensitive topics under the guise of comedy, making its subversive messages more palatable to a broad audience.
- Matthew Ulm22 maggio 2025It is one of my personal favorites and most irreverent I know of. This and Frankenstein are Gene and Mel and their very best. How the actors were able to do this film with straight faces I will never know. If you hear the handkerchief by Mel Brooks, the story explains everything.
- Richard21 ottobre 2025I caught Blazing Saddles on TV late one night, expecting a dusty Western and maybe a few chuckles. What I got was a cinematic Molotov cocktail, Mel Brooks at his most unhinged, swinging for every taboo like he was trying to break comedy itself. From the opening scene, it was clear this wasn’t your average cowboy flick. The jokes were fast, filthy, and fearless. Every stereotype got skewered, every sacred cow milked dry. I sat there slack, jawed, popcorn untouched, wondering how this ever made it past the censors, let alone onto my living room screen. Cleavon Little’s Bart was smooth as silk, Gene Wilder’s Waco Kid was the drunk philosopher I didn’t know I needed and Madeline Kahn’s Lili Von Shtupp? Pure vaudeville gold. But it wasn’t just the cast, it was the sheer audacity. The film didn’t tiptoe around racism, sexism, or Hollywood hypocrisy, it kicked the door in, cracked a fart joke and rode off on a blazing saddle. Could it be made today? Not a chance. The script would be shredded by committee before the first draft hit the printer. But that’s the point. Blazing Saddles wasn’t trying to be safe, it was trying to be honest, in the most absurd way possible. It held up a mirror to America’s prejudices and laughed so hard the glass shattered. Watching it on TV added a strange intimacy. No theater crowd to buffer the shock, just me, the remote and a growing sense that I was witnessing something both brilliant and completely bonkers. A fearless, foul mouthed masterpiece that couldn’t exist in today’s climate, but thank Schwartz it did back then. Watching it on TV felt like discovering a forbidden relic of comedy history and I’m glad I didn’t change the channel and I'm happy that I own it.
