‘Blazing Saddles’ is available now on 4K Ultra HD
I grew up watching many of Mel Brooks films. Spaceballs and Robin Hood: Men in Tights have tons of quotable lines and both films make me laugh until it hurts. It has been years since I have watched Blazing Saddles, but I remember it being pretty funny. When I heard this movie was being released on 4K Ultra HD, I hoped I would get to watch it again. I was able to get a review copy of this film and here is my thoughts on it.

You can read the plot for Blazing Saddles here:
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.

I had a wonderful time watching this movie again. There was tons of comedic moments, and a few touching ones as well. While this story moves along, we see these characters grow and change in many ways. Once this film comes to a close, life for these two heroes will be changed forever. ‘Blaze of Glory: Mel Brooks’ Wild Wild West’ had the director talking about the Western genre as a whole and looking back at some memories of working on this movie. ‘Back in the Saddle’ had interviews with the most of the cast looking back on this film and how great of an experience it was for them. There were also some humorous Additional Scenes that I had never seen before that were really quite funny.
