Editorial Review:
Description: Acclaimed director John Sturges (The Magnificent Seven, Bad Day at Black Rock, Gunfight at the O.K. Corral) turns the legends of the West upside down in this rip-roaring western comedy about the year Denver was nearly devastated by a droughtof whiskeyand had to have fortywagonloads imported through very harshand very thirstyterritory!Academy AwardÂ(r) winners* Burt Lancaster and Martin Landau team with OscarÂ(r) nominee** Lee Remick inthis beautifully filmed epic adventure that 'wins both laughs and thrills' (The Hollywood Reporter)! Also starring Jim Hutton, Brian Keith and Donald Pleasence, this irreverent and literally dry look at frontier life is 'possibly the funniest western ever made' (Los Angeles Times)!
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - Hallelujah Trail Burt Lancaster is at his best in this comedy about whiskey and the temperance movement.I have watched this movie a dozen times and still laugh at the story line and all the aspects brought to the final ending.Mr. Lancaster plays a straight laced Colonel just trying to do his job, but the supporting cast such as Jim Hutton make his life unbearable.This is a family movie all can enjoy, and a laugh a minute.
Rating: - WATCH OUT FOR QUICKSAND BOTTOMS!
This movie was taken from the 1964 Doubleday DD hardcover western novel THE HALLELUJAH TRAIN written by Bill Gulick. Mr. Gulick was a well known writer to those of us that read and enjoy print westerns. He also wrote other westerns such as TREASURE IN HELL'S CANYON, and the trilogy of the Nez Perces War: DISTANT TRAILS 1805-1836, GATHERING STORM 1837-1868, AND LOST WALLOWA 1868-1879.

Rating: - What a difference 40 years makes I first saw this movie back in the mid '60s when I was about 14 and thought it was a great movie.I recently purchased it on DVD and looked forward to enjoying it again.Unfortunately, like some wine this movie didn't age well.While there were some amusing spots (Donald Pleasance's performance)I found a great deal of the movie to be rather corny and ham handed.It was amusing to view again after forty years or so but for me it's not a keeper.
Rating: - Just a clean fun western movie I know zero people who have seen this funny western movie. Too bad. It's not all that sophisticated, and it has some non-PC characterizations. But if your object is watching a movie just to have fun, this one has lots of it. The oracle stole the show just as cleanly as the first time I saw this film. The DVD is high-quality.
Rating: - Good movie This was one of my husband's favorite old movies and I didn't remember seeing it.So I ordered it for him and we watched it the other night.It was very good.
