Bewertung von palmk
Yes, I've rated this movie a 10 out of 10. It's the only movie I've ever actually paid to see in a theater nine times.
However, that was all when it was originally released. Every time I've seen it more recently, what I saw was a watered-down PC version. While still funny, it had lost most of its original hilarity. I am not convinced it's even possible to see the original theatrical release version any more.
Here's how to tell if you're seeing the original: After Mongo rides into town, the sheriff has to deal with him. If you see an underwater scene involving a diving helmet, you are NOT looking at the original theatrical release version!
Huh? That's correct; in most movies, editing means scenes are left out. But in Blazing Saddles the original theatrical release version included the word "nigger" in about every other line of dialogue. This became wholly unacceptable sometime later, so the film was edited to remove most of these lines. That left the film so severely shortened that scenes that were originally left on the editing room floor -- such as that scene with the diving helmet -- were resurrected and put back INTO the film.

This movie is generally underrated, which may be because people expected it to be something it's not. It's a comedy, a spoof, and an excellent one. It is not a serious sci-fi action adventure.
Who knew Robert Urich could be this funny? The scene where the captured ice pirates are being prepared for slave duty alone is worth the price of admission!
Then there's the robot that was purchased for an inexplicably good price. That particular scene is so dark that it may be necessary to play it back a couple of times to see what's going on.
You find a beautiful woman in suspended animation. What would you do?
The biggest shortcoming of this film is the ending, where there's a rather silly chase through a wormhole or some such. It doesn't really work, and since it's right at the end of the film may help explain why so many review the film so poorly.
