Ribald, tasteless and hilarious ... this classic spoof of the Western genre by director Mel Brooks pokes fun at everyone and everything. A corrupt governor grants a reprieve to an African American convict if the condemned man agrees to serve as sheriff of a small Western town, believing that new sheriff will only live long enough to serve the needs of the governor and his nefarious railroad-baron backer.

Critics Consensus: Daring, provocative, and laugh-out-loud funny, Blazing Saddles is a gleefully vulgar spoof of Westerns that marks a high point in Mel Brooks' storied career.

Allison Rose

Brooks' career has spanned 70 years, creating some of the most beloved comedies of all time.

Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles continues to remain an iconic staple of the Western comedy genre, even if some of its jokes don't quite mesh well.

A fantastic, fun comedy that was ahead of its time. Mel Brook's sharp parody of the cowboy genre, also tackles racism with some lightning shots. [Full review in Spanish]

Blazing Saddles made Mel Brooks for a time the medium’s leading comedic filmmaker...

Gene Wilder is perfect as the alcoholic gunslinger the Waco Kid, and Madeline Kahn steals the show as a Dietrich-like chanteuse.
