Take the title characters from "The Three Musketeers," place them in Hollywood during the Golden Age of Vaudeville, and add a little SNL spice, and what do you have? The Three Amigos! The movie opens in 1916, when a peaceful Mexican village is threatened by the evil El Guapo (Alfonso Arau). When young Rodrigo (Philip Gordon) watches a Three Amigos movie and sees his heroes save a village - a Shakespearean "play within a play" - he sends them a telegraph immediately. Little does he realize that Lucky Day (Steve Martin), Dusty Bottoms (Chevy Chase), and Ned Nederlander (Martin Short) only play these Amigos on stage, not in real life. Moreover, they have been banished from Goldsmith Pictures by its owner, played by Joe Mantegna....

We are the three aaaaaaaaaa....migos
Review date: 2003-11-07 Rating: 10 out of 10

In my opinion one of the best comedies I have seen.

With Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short all on top form as the three dim-witted unemployed Hollywood actors who are enlisted to help a little mexican village from the terrors of a man called "El Guapo"! The thing is...they think its just a show, that is until the real bullets start flying.

This film has some truly brilliant slapstick moments which I won't ruin for you (but the "my little buttercup" song and "male plane" joke had me in fits).

This film will keep everyone entertained with the various gunfights, a fight with invisible swordsman (doesn't last long), singing bushes, sing alongs and "male" planes. What is not to love about this film. It is Highly recommended.

Good, lighthearted fun

The story of three actors who get fired. A woman recognizes them from their "Three Amigos" movies and thinks that they're the real thing, not just actors. So she hires them to get rid of the "banditos" that are terrorising her Mexican village, while they think that she's hiring them to do a show. Light-hearted, silly, and OK for kids,this movie that was co-written by Steve Martin is a worthy add to your video collection. (The reason it's PG is for some mild shoot-outs.)

Buy it Amigo!

I first saw the Three Amigos a number of years ago and recently bought it on DVD. Along with digital enhancments it is still one of those comedy classics. Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short all give brilliant performances with great individual touches to the characters they portrait. There isn't a moment without comedy, "toungue in cheek" romance or mass gun fighting (with amazing gun skills) in this film.

Buy it! Its one of those movies you will want to watch over and over again.

Brillant, the best Steve Martin film you can buy

I love it every moment of it is so funny and I can watch it over and over again. The singing bush, Little Neddy, Germans, Mexicans, and pretty ladies this film has it all. Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short are so funny and it is there best film. In one words this film is Brillant and a must buy.
