9/10
The Legend of Marshall P. Knutt.
6 October 2020
Carry on Cowboy has to be considered one of the best of the Carry on films.

It is incredibly funny, the gags and one liners are relentless. As for the story it's a typical Western, it works on every level.

The best element for me as always been the visuals, it looks incredible, the production team surpassed all expectations, amazing sets and fantastic costumes. I will never forget the sight of Joan Sims in that blue dress, she looked incredible.

Sid James is absolutely magnificent as The Rumpo Kid, it is without a doubt one of his best performances, he looks very smart in his costumes, had a great accent, and really does deliver the laughs.

It's such a pity that Jon Pertwee had such a relatively small part, he is wonderfully funny for the limited time he's in it.

I cannot believe how comfortable so many of the cast look on horses, Sid, Pertwee and Bernard Bresslaw are all at ease.

A classic, invest in the blu ray, it's well worth it, and looks unbelievable, great film, 9/10.
