Product Details


Product Description

Amazon.ca

John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were born to star in "The Taming of the Shrew," and this is the closest they ever got. Wayne plays a cattle baron whose estranged wife (O'Hara) wants a divorce. The film is basically one long, funny brawl between them, ending with a mud pit melee and Wayne publicly spanking O'Hara, which doesn't look quite so politically correct anymore. This is no great shakes--director Andrew V. McLaglen is simply hosting a party here--but it's worth a few chuckles and the stars' broad performances. --Tom Keogh

I love John Wayne, always have and always will. Him and Maureen O'Hare are always a perfect combination. I would watch it everyday if my husband would let me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrible quality April 15 2004
Format:DVD
I am glad I came here to read the reviews. I thought my DVD of "McLintock" was bad or my eyes were worse than I thought. Terribe quality. This moive really needs to be in a wide-screen format and cleaned up. Other than that this is one of John Waynes best movies.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great film. Awful DVD! May 31 2004
Format:DVD
Somebody just please tell me why studio execs keep doing this? They take a great film that needs to be on DVD. But instead of actually taking the time to make it look good like the film deserves, they put out a very inferior production.
The movie on it's own is a classic. Amusing story. Great acting. But the DVD transfer looks like the master copy of this movie came from a tape that somebody picked off a 99 cents rack at Dollar General. Then they took the tape and recorded it off tv. The picture quality of this movie is petheticly awful. It is so grainy and ugly. I think I could record it off tv and get a better quality picture than this!
Also it looks like somebody tried to make the movie closed captioned or something. Because you will see somebody speaking who is almost off screen, but you do get to see their lips! Sad, so sad.......

Bottom Line:
Great movie. But unless you HAVE to have it on DVD, then I recommend not wasting your money. When will the studios get the point that putting a movie on DVD needs to have more done to it than a transfer!

This movie is just sad. It has the most awful quality, it looks like "YouTube". This is so bad that I wish I never bought it.

Finally released as an official collectors edition, McLintock staring John Wayne is a rolicking western romp. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Five star movie, zero star copy
In my minds eye I have retained this film in all its boisterous, hilarious, non-political correct fun!
The available copies of this film, however, suck. Read more

Excellent movie, but the quality of the DVD is terrible-very grainy. It's like they copied a videotape.
