Amazon.com: John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were born to star in "The Taming of the Shrew," and this is the closest they ever got. Wayne plays a cattle baron whose estranged wife (O'Hara) wants a divorce. The film is basically one long, funny brawl between them, ending with a mud pit melee and Wayne publicly spanking O'Hara, which doesn't look quite so politically correct anymore. This is no great shakes--director Andrew V. McLaglen is simply hosting a party here--but it's worth a few chuckles and the stars' broad performances. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - McClintock
Great movie! Cute story. Maureen O'Hara and John Wayne have a magnetic chemistry which makes this movie work. Chill Wills is always fabulous in his supporting role. Comedy, romance, love, stubborn pride, etc.
Nice romantic comedy with a western setting.
Rating: - McLintock!
This was a fun movie when I was young, and still is. It really is pretty sexist by today's standards, but still enjoyable to watch.
Rating: - O'Hara and Wayne at their BEST
I finally own the movie that almost out does the Quiet Man. If you love O'Hara and Wayne together, you cannot miss this one. A thrilling comedy for the whole family for now and years to come. You will laugh till it hurts and watch it twice because you will miss a lot while laughing out loud. Amazon delivers an excellent quality DVD.
Rating: - Funny Film with Timeless Words of Wisdom
A friend let me borrow this film and I found it funny and cute. Although his version the film was scratchy and not good quality but I bought this one and it was perfect. The sound and picture quality was perfect. I do not have any trouble with my disc.
Words of wisdom: "I can't explain it Becky, but there is something that happens between a man and a women with all that growing up together."
John Wayne at his best!
Rating: - Fun Movie
This is one of the best John Wayne movies that I have ever seen. Very funny and exciting to watch. This is up there with Hatari! I would recommend this movie to everyone.
