Magnificent Seven (Box Set) (DVD, 2001)

A classic, the sequel and two other films

The Magnificent Seven (1960) is one of the classic Western films from when I was a child. It was the first Western I saw in a cinema, on a short re-release around 1972. It was great to see again, in remastered detail and colour. The first sequel, The Return of the Magnificent Seven, with only Yul Brynner reprising his lead role, is an acceptable follow-up, with a connected storyline, but not quite as good as the original.

The other two films in this set, are also sequels to the original, Guns of the Magnificent Seven and The Magnificent Seven Ride! Unfortunately, they are nothing like the quality of either of the first two films. As a fan of the spaghetti westerns of Sergio Leone, which owe a lot to the original Magnificent Seven film in terms of style, I would say the last two sequels in this set are more like the many low budget imitations of Sergio Leone's films.

Overall, despite the slight disappointment of the 3rd and 4th films, the box set of all four is worth having if you are true fan of The Magnificent Seven. Not only do you get a really good modern copy of the first film, but you can also enjoy the second film, and then realise how well made the first two are compared to the later imitations.Read full review
