A profoundly sexist and eminently hummable 1954 CinemaScope musical with some terrific athletic Michael Kidd choreography and some better-than-average direction by Stanley Donen.

Thrillingly energetic dances on film.

This is a happy, hand-clapping, foot-stomping country type of musical with all the slickness of a Broadway show.

This rather archly symmetrical movie musical is best seen as a dance-fest, with Michael Kidd's acrobatic, pas d'action choreography well complemented by ex-choreographer Donen's camera.

Although the powers at M-G-M are deviating from the normal song-and-dance extravaganza in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, it is a gamble that is paying rich rewards.

May 27, 2016It's so goofy but I enjoy the movie for it's outstanding choreography.Alec B Super Reviewer

Mar 14, 2014Silly and slightly offensive, here we have a bunch of guys from the hills kidnapping seven gals to make wives out of them. Without the dancing and music, this could be very easily a horror movie. It is harmless fun in this depiction.John B Super Reviewer

Mar 13, 2010People often think of the 1950s as just a repressed and conservative time in America, overlooking the fact that people were also quite odd and strange back then (watch a few episodes of the old Superman television series if you want further proof). Film-wise, the fifties were the heyday of both the western and the musical, so it's no surpise when someone decided to combine the two. Okay, so Seven Brides for Seven Brothers isn't your typical western, but even though there's no gunfighting in the streets, it embodies the western spirit of the old west pioneers. The fun and frolic begins when a bunch of farmer brothers decides to take themselves some wife-womenfolk type thinga-mabobs. With the help of eldest brother Adam's good young wife, the other brothers learn a little about manners and how to woo the ladies without offering them chaws of tobaccey. The music may not be all that memorable, but the great performances make up for that. It's alot of corny fun from the oddball fifties.Devon B Super Reviewer

Dec 28, 2009It's certainly not the best musical around, but it does have some charm.Tim S Super Reviewer
