Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Maybe because I saw "The Paleface" after I saw "Son," I couldn't help but find the latter to be a much more satisfying and entertaining film. Bob Hope, in his inimitable style, is aptly sarcastic, witty, bumbling, crafty, and just plain funny as the son of the character from the original. Jane Russell seems to parody the sexy image of which she was so famous. Roy Rogers enjoys being the brunt of some of Hope's jibes about the cowboy's "squeaky-clean" persona. Technicolor has never made Trigger look better.
A great enjoyment for the entire family is this classic farce. Mel Brooks must have been influenced when he made "Blazing Saddles" decades later.
