DVD Reviews of The Cincinnati Kid
DVD Review: excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
Walmart had this set for 11.98 and I missed the deal but the collection is great.DVD Review: Great Acting
Summary: 5 Stars
Steve Mcqueen was a great actor. Papillon was my favorite. Watching Mr McQueen perform helped me see how a real person can be involved in such situations.This star performed like great persons that actually lived through great events. I see where Clint Eastwood got some ideas from.
DVD Review: A gunfight with cards
Summary: 4 Stars
Is how Director Norman Jewison envisioned the final card scene. He succeeded. The film tends to drag through the second act but really pulls off a great finale. The dvd quality is good with a decent amount of extras but is probably more for the die hard Mcqueen or card game fan than anything. DVD Review: A Lot Going For It
Summary: 4 Stars
What has stuck with me all these years, since I saw it in the theater in 1965, wasn't the story but the title song by Ray Charles. I have never been able to get "The Cincinnati Kid" song out of my head.
Now, I understand a lady in Chicago, Denise Brigham, has recorded this song on a CD called "Hotel Lafayette," and the song sounds great! I'm glad others appreciate this great song.
I've also always enjoyed poker; Steve McQueen and Edward G. Robinson are two of my all- time favorite actors and I thought Tuesday Weld and Ann-Margaret were two of the most beautiful women in their day.....so, with all that, this movie has a lot going for it. Did I mention how great the transfer is on this DVD? Wow, this was nicely filmed!
Yes, the story doesn't have much spark until the poker showdown at the end of the movie, but that lasts at least 40 minutes! That ending is an excellent one, too.
DVD Review: Cincinnati Kid review
Summary: 4 Stars
This film has a great cast: Steve McQueen as the "Kid", Edward G. Robinson as the "Man", Karl Mauldin as "Shooter" the card dealer, Ann Margret as the "Eye Candy", and an especially memorable performance by a young actor as the shoe shine boy.
