It’s by no means some sort of quote-whoringly “fantastic stuff,” “the best baseball movie since Ken Burns took 18 hours of my life” or even “a home run.” Sometimes a solid single is all that it takes.

So how much more can they get out of cussing kiddies playing baseball? Apparently an additional 91 minutes – 91 painful, horrendous, baseball-bat-to-the-crotch-three-times minutes.
A consistently funny show with loveable characters that provide plenty of fodder to get sucked in by, even if it is somewhat passive by this point.
A film that is at times laughable yet at the same time, over 15 years after its release, its premise is still up for debate and discussion.
An exceptionally well-written, well-acted and well-directed thriller that extends beyond the boundaries mainstream films typically set.
While it does have some solid moments of action, the film as a whole is laughable.
Hawks and his cast and crew make El Dorado seem so easy. It’s like a refined blockbuster that’s confident in hitting its ability to hit the right notes.
It’s got the mystery aspect down beautifully, but because I wasn’t given a chance to get behind the characters and get to know them, I had a hard time getting into the film itself.
Helped greatly by excellent performances from both of the film’s leads, as well as the rounded supporting cast.
