Rio Bravo Reviews

1/29/26: Howard Hawks made this as a rebuke against High Noon, as High Noon was an allegory for The Hollywood Blacklist during the time. He was a terrible man. Very dull plot, so boring. The only good things are Angie Dickinson and Ricky Nelson being hot, and still they put Angie Dickinson with John Wayne at the end 🤮

What a squad! Wayne is the swagger, Nelson the handsome youth, Brennan the sass. Talented Martin as the hostage. Dickinson is gorgeous.

A bit long but a solid Western overall.

Very good western. A touch long but awesome. Very enjoyable and fun

One of the greatest westerns of all time and in my top 5 westerns. Great performances and characters with some awesome shoot out scenes. John Wayne is a legend and showcases how great he is in this genre. I loved this one

My favorite western and it isn’t close!

7/10 enjoyed John and dean martins performances. Classic western feel, but not as good as sons of Katie elder

Great
