Mel Brooks definitely set the bar pretty high with this one. I LOVE Brooks' movies, but this one has to be my favorite. |

Between fart jokes and racism, Blazing Saddles manages to incense just about anyone watching it. That's a good thing, as it will have you laughing the whole way. One of Brooks best efforts and one of my favorite comedies. |

"Blazing Saddles" is argubly Mel Brooks' best and funniest film. It also ranks up there with "Airplane!" and "The Naked Gun" as one of the funniest movies ever made. Brooks has been well known for his movie spoofs. He has spoofed Hitchcock suspense-thrillers ("High Anxiety"), science fiction movies ("Spaceballs"), old historical epics ("History of the World Part I"), and the horror genre twice ("Young Frankenstein" and "Dracula: Dead and Loving It"). With "Blazing Saddles" Brooks sends up the western genre and does a pretty darn good job of it. There are laughs galore in this picture with most of the jokes done in bad taste. This is one movie that shouldn't be watched on television. Rent it or catch it on cable because if you watch "Blazing Saddles" on a network station or a basic cable c... |

Where All The White Women At!? |

"Blazing Saddles" is quite possibly one of the top 3 funniest movies of all time. Written by Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor, this is the most unique and utterly zany parody of films I have ever seen. I enjoyed every single joke and every single riotous character being brought to life. Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder have great chemistry and Harvey Korman and Madeline Kahn make for a great ensemble cast addition. What a beautiful work of comedic timing and hilarious comedic writing coming together for one of the best comedies of all time! |

Excuse me while I whip this out |

The greatest comedy ever made. I don't care what anyone says. Mel Brooks has included it all, he's taken a western and totally ripped it apart and then put it back together in his own unique way. But, the secret to movie is Richard Pryors touch in the screenplay. His inclusion legitamizes all of the race jokes that make the movie great. |
