I'd been looking for a copy of this movie for some time. I'd told my wife how funny it was and she wanted to see it. Now she has and agrees that it is, indeed, a very funny movie that pokes a lot of fun at many western movie stereotypes without the "over-the-top" schtick of a "Blazing Saddles." My only complaint of the excellent VHS copy I purchased is that it is not in "Letterbox" format, so you miss the sight gag of English subtitles when the Indians speak Comanche and the Comanche subtitles when the Indians speak English. But, all-in-all, I highly recommend this movie. It is not exactly historically accurate nor politically correct (white men in black hair wigs don't really pass as Native Americans) and obviously filmed on a Hollywood backlot rather than in Texas, but it is still a lot of fun and well worth watching.Read full review
My brother, who is 5 years older than me, and I didn't get along too well when we were young and we were never very close. One of the few good memories of us ever having fun together was watching "Texas Across the River". I plan to share the copy I just won with him. We get along pretty well now, and I'd like to bring back that feeling of helpless laughter this movie gave us in between our fights! Great film, one of the best comedies ever!
Need a few good, belly laughs? Sit back with your favorite popcorn and enjoy Dean Martin at his silliest.

When we first saw this movie, I thought it was one of the funniest I'd ever seen. Got a VCR copy and it was just as funny. Our home burned a few years ago and we lost the copy we had, so I was thrilled to find it on ebay. When things are't going well and we are in the doldrums, watching really good funny movies cheers us up, and Texas Across the River is a laugh a minute.
I remember that I thoroughly enjoyed this movie when it played in the theater. However, the reason I purchased it is for my brother. I've been watching EBay for a long time for a copy which would sell for a price I could afford. When I got this tape for less than the max. I thought I could afford I was very pleased. Of course I viewed it before sending it on to him. It is even better than I remembered.
