Product Description:
BIKER CARY FORD IS FRAMED BY AN OLD RIVAL AND BIKER GANG LEADER FOR THE MURDER OF ANOTHER GANG MEMBER WHO HAPPENS TO BE THE BROTHER OF TREY

Amazon.com essential video:
Mel Brooks scored his first commercial hit with this raucous Western spoof starring the late Cleavon Little as the newly hired (and conspicuously black) sheriff of Rock Ridge. Sheriff Bart teams up with deputy Jim (Gene Wilder) to foil the railroad-building scheme of the nefarious Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman). The simple plot is just an excuse for a steady stream of gags, many of them unabashedly tasteless, that Brooks and his wacky cast pull off with side-splitting success. The humor is so juvenile and crude that you just have to surrender to it; highlights abound, from the lunkheaded Alex Karras as the ox-riding Mongo to Madeline Kahn's uproarious send-up of Marlene Dietrich as saloon songstress Lili Von Shtupp. Adding to the comedic excess is the infamous campfire scene involving a bunch of hungry cowboys, heaping servings of baked beans and, well, you get the idea. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - blazing saddles,excellent
This movie will keep you laughing and laughing no matter how many times you watch it.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - what a classic
This is not only classic Mel Brooks but it is classic farce and satire all rolled into one.Something EVERYONE should see.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Mel Brooks Classic!!!
This was a very funny spoof of the Western genre. A town full of rednecks gets a new sheriff who happens to be black. Although I'm not black, but it pissed me off when the white people called Sheriff Bart a ni##er. Gene Wilder also makes the film funnier as Jim, but most people call him....Jim. If you love Mel Brooks movies, you'll love BLAZING SADDLES!!!
