With his sawdust charm, a humanoid wood-chopper enchants a woman of appropriate proportions, who – after pretending for a moment to be of good disposition in the synthetic forest – decides that both her beloved and his brothers are not sufficiently gay (in both senses of the word) and decides to polish them up a bit. It is seriously artificial and so self-serious that I was just waiting for someone to belt out “I’m a lumberjack, but I’m okay…”. The exterior scenes filmed in a studio are just as unconvincing as the second-rate actors, which is not Stanley Donen’s fault, as he lightly and spectacularly directs the dance scenes. Rather, fault lies with MGM’s management, who didn’t expect anything great from the film and thus didn’t invest much in it. If it weren’t so silly and cheap, it would have been a nice, colourful musical. 55% ()
Although at first glance it seems like a strange combination - a western comedy musical with the main storyline revolving around the marriage of seven brothers - in the end, it's excellent. If you are going to watch a musical western, then definitely in this rendition. In addition to great colors and excellent songs, the film stands out with its humor and acrobatic scenes. ()
