Two Mules for Sister Sara

I love Clint westerns and Two Mules For Sister Sara is no exception. Clint is Clint and Shirley MacLaine is perfect for her role as "Sister Sara". The developing chemistry between Eastwood and MacLaine is fun to watch and the score outstanding. As usual, Clint has some classic one-liners. I've watched this DVD 5 times and have yet to be bored.

Clint and Shirley have great chemistry together. The movie is light on action and works as a lighthearted comedy. The music by Ennio Morricone is cool . The movie is really funny in some places like the talk about the ass. The dialogue is often witty. There is no unnecessary violence. The movie has moments when it gets little serious , but not too serious . The plot is not quite predictable as one could suspect. The final battle is quite exciting. Despite what IMDb tells you this is not really a war movie. It is set during war , but it's western. It's one of Eastwood weaker westerns , but still a good and enjoyable movie. I give it 7/10. P.S. For those who don't understood the title - Eastwood is stubborn as mule , get it ? It's a joke.

It was a different kind of western with a surprising ending. Clint Eastwood and Shirley McClaine had great chemistry and gave great performances; especially Clint Eastwood. It was fun to watch with a good story line. Very entertaining!

Hogan (Clint Eastwood) is helping the Mexican Revolutionaries in their fight against the French forces in Mexico. On the way, he rescues a nun named Sara (Shirley MacLaine) from three bandits. Or is she? They form a great love-hate relationship in a good buddy picture. They bicker, they make eyes for each other, they blow up a train, and they take over a French fort. This movie starts with a great music hook, and the story only gets better. The music cue is instantly recognizable by anybody who's ever seen this movie. Sexy Shirley MacLaine have some great chemistry with the grumpy Clint Eastwood. They complement each other perfectly. It is the perfect rom-com western combo.

Shirley MacLaine, Clint Eastwood, Manolo Fabregas. Profane Sister Sara recruits a drifter to help Mexican rebels attack a French fort. This is Clint in the prime of his B Western career, and ultimately one of his very best films, western or not. This work features some stunning vistas, whether real or back-lot drop sets, the vistas are beautiful. Shirley MacLaine kicks in a convincing performance as the Profane Sister Sara, who conducts business like a wrangler. Fraught with intrigue, some great performances, and an interesting story line, this well executed western makes for a fine rainy Saturday afternoon. Otherwise, unless you are an aficionado of the classic American western, this may be somewhat of a disappointment, if you had to clear your busy schedule to allow appropriate viewing time. This is my favorite Clint Eastwood film, western or no, and it rates a 7.6/10 from... the Fiend :.

Curious, unexpectedly talky western set in the Mexican desert. Drifter on horseback saves a nun from rape at the hands of bandits, she saves him by removing an arrow from his shoulder. The rapport between these two couldn't have looked very colorful on the printed page, but by God if stars Clint Eastwood and feisty Shirley MacLaine don't give it color and charisma. The writing isn't very expressive, and there's an odd drop-off in action after the opening sequence, but once you get attuned to the film's rhythm, it surprises you with its resonance. For action buffs, only the final shoot-out will please; for everyone else, a leisurely, though absorbing and entertaining, character-driven change-of-pace. *** from ****
