John Wayne is a Texas Ranger in this rollicking, good humored western, assigned to bring an arms-running gang to justice. After Wayne arrests one of the criminals, matters are complicated when they wander into an area controlled by the Comancheros: a group of Anglos aiding the warring Comanche Indians. Based on the novel by Paul I. Wellman, THE COMANCHEROS was the last film for director Michael Curtiz (CASABLANCA).

Shot in CinemaScope. The battle sequences were directed by Cliff Lyons. Some outdoor locations were filmed in Moab, Utah.

This is the only Joan O'Brien video.

Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

5 stars One of Wayne's best
This one has all the stuff that made the westerns fun, cowboys, Indians, and comedy and not to be taken too serious. Typical for John Wayne fans that love his stuff. One of my favorites that I've probably seen at least 36 times and will keep watching it. The great ones never grow old, the movies or the actors.

3 stars Fun and entertaining
This is a great Sunday Morning Movie, a classic J. Wayne's, that I never saw while young, but it's one that tells you why Wayne has been one of the most beloved caracters in Hollywood; outspoken, charming and very human. A very nice fellow that will always keep the american way. I liked it when he calls "mansur" to the refined "monsieur" he teams with, in his battle against the comancheros.

1 star Well in the top 10 worst movie ever
With a couple of good one liners and a little bit of action john Wayne pulls of yet another dismal performance, it may be a bit harsh but this is a movie for old timers that cant let go of the past and still love there Cowboy and Indian movies or cant accept the fact that The Duke Cant act. It would have been better if Lee Marvin was the main actor and didn't die early in the piece for he provided some comical relief and a bit of caracter to the film

John Wayne reprises his role as Rooster Cogburn, the eye-patched, whiskey-guzzling deputy marshall from TRUE GRIT. While on the trail of a gang of outlaws led by his old partner Hawk (a truly villainous Richard Jordan), Rooster teams up with bible-thumping missionary Eula Goodnight (Katherine Hepburn) to avenge the murder of her father by the gang.

Frank Pierce (Bruce Cabot) is a ruthless man bent on manipulating the cattle business towards his own wealth and prosperity. When Taw Jackson (John Wayne), an honest rancher, interferes with his plans, Pierce imprisons him and confiscates his gold-filled land. Escaping the prison, Taw plans a raid on Pierce's heavily guarded pay roll carriage, but not if Pierce has anything to say about it. After assembling a group of misfits and hired guns, Taw runs into serious opposition when he encounters the madcap gunslinger, Lomax (Kirk Douglas). Sent by Pierce to stop the raid, Lomax winds up taking a liking to Taw, and they decide to join forces and stage a raid on Pierce's WAR WAGON. Famous for its fighting scenes between John Wayne and Kirk Douglas, WAR WAGON is quintessential of its genre. WAR WAGONS features astonishing stunts and pyrotechnics. Advanced for its time (it was released in 1969) one would think Kennedy produced it in the mid '70s. The climactic end scene which pits Douglas and Wayne against a Gatling gun has spawned similar scenes ...

Howard Hawks's final film once again teams him with John Wayne, with a script by Leigh Brackett (who also wrote his EL DORADO and RIO BRAVO). The time is just after the end of the Civil War. Wayne is Union Colonel Cord McNally, who is teamed with two Confederate soldiers he captured during the war in order to take down a thieving bootlegger. Their travels take them to a small town being held in terror by an evil Sheriff. McNally and his crew decide to help the townspeople with their own brand of justice. With a considerable amount of humor and Hawks's reliable formula in which a motley band of men unite for a common cause, RIO LOBO is a fitting conclusion to ...

Ashton Kutcher stars in this romantic comedy about a tumultuous night in the life of a regular guy. Tom (Kutcher) works a menial position at one of Chicago's biggest publishing houses. Terrified of his maniacal boss, Jack Taylor (Terence Stamp), Tom also daydreams about Jack's gorgeous daughter, Lisa (Tara Reid). One day, Lisa asks Tom to do her a favor and show up at her dad's house later that night. He thinks he's taking her to a party, but when he gets there, he realizes his true purpose: he's going to housesit while Jack leaves town and Lisa goes to the party with her boyfriend. Of course, Jack is militaristic in his cleanliness, as well as in his devotion to his pet owl, OJ. When unwelcome guests start arriving (Andy Richter, Molly Shannon, Carmen Electra, Michael Madsen), Tom knows big trouble is just around the corner. That big trouble is in the form of OJ, who flies out the front door after drinking a toilet full of cocaine-doused water. Eventually, Lisa comes home, forcing Tom to balance the chaos downstairs with the budding romance upstairs. Featuring several hilarious supporting performances, David Zucker's ...
