Reviews for The Man Who Would Be King
Entre uma batalha e uma avalanche, o roteiro procura arrancar boas risadas da platéia. E consegue.
Top notch Kipling tale with Huston at helm supported by great Connery and Caine performances.
They don't make adventure movies like this anymore. Connery and Caine have rarely been better.
The film is supposed to be fun -- despite its ending -- and even that is an interesting departure from the über-serious tone of most epics of the time.
A robust and rousing screen version of one of the greatest adventure stories ever written
