The fact is, Paint Your Wagon doesn't inspire a review. It doesn't even inspire a put-down. It just lies there in my mind - a big, heavy lump. Oct 23, 2004 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

A mess, to be certain, but a happy and unpretentious mess that rambles along with a reckless charm. May 15, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Logan's movie is a flop on many levels, a musical in which America's most macho actors, Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin, are miscast and required to sing. Feb 13, 2011 | Rating: D | Full Review…

The pic just collapses because there's nothing going on that matters except to watch Marvin's hammy performance. May 17, 2009 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

This last gasp MGM musical still features enough curiousity to make it worthwhile. Jul 29, 2007 | Rating: 3/5

Not as bad as some would make you believe. But I'm still not looking forward to that Clint Eastwood Sings Sinatra album. Aug 8, 2002 | Rating: 3/5

...a surplus of good, hummable tunes, breezy dialogue and characterizations, beautiful location shots, and excellent DVD transfer. Jul 30, 2001 | Rating: 7/10

I'm not a fan of musicals, but this amiable western is full of slapstick drunken brawls and affable cowpokes, semi spoofing the genre. Imagine a romantic Cat Ballou with songs...?! Plus Lee Marvin and Clint are great together.

Paint Your Wagon is a strange western musical which has some embarrassingly catchy tunes. What a ride!
Mildly amateurish, yet funny and interesting.
I'm still amazed, when I run into this one, that Marvin and especailly Eastwood did this. This is not a horrible movie; it is strangely . . . observable. You will probably not lose yourself in this movie, but you might end up giving both Marvin and Eastwood credit for doing something different, something "against type."
