This is the kind of movie that has you smiling the whole way through & you just know it must have been fun to make.
What is it about? To give any details of the movie would spoil the ride for those who haven't seen it before. It's a true classic western but it has a sense of humour.
It's not a revenge movie or a violent snapshot of how the west really was but the plot is masterfully woven around Dean Martin's likable character.He's a hapless anti hero that trouble is drawn to like a magnet.
Something Big is kind of like the contents of the suitcase in Pulp Fiction....everybody wants in but no one knows what their getting into.
A great cast,a great story & a lot of laughs. It's just criminal that this movie isn't available to buy anywhere.
