Seven Brides For Seven Brothers
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which is based in Oregon in 1850, is particularly known for the unusual choreography by Michael Kidd, which makes dance numbers out of such mundane frontier pursuits as chopping wood and raising a barn.

Corny as heck.
October 10, 2004
The songs are knowingly corny and catchy as hell, the dancing is (quite rightly) renowned, the story is ludicrously sexist, and the whole film is just exceedingly watchable.

The songs are not classic and the cast is exuberant rather than charismatic, but Kidd's energetic choreography triumphs.
August 10, 2004
one of the greatest musicals, if not movies, of all time
January 03, 2010
Donen's manipulation of spinning torsos and piston-pumping knees across Cinemascope sprawls is inventive everywhere
October 08, 2004
...a big, brawling, rollicking movie that, old-fashioned or not, helped to open up the movie musical to widescreen singing and dancing.
May 16, 2008
This is a happy, hand-clapping, foot-stomping country type of musical with all the slickness of a Broadway show.
June 17, 2005
Written directly for ther screen, MGM's popular musical benefits immensely from Stanley Donen's deft direction, Michael Kidd's dynamic choreography, and Adolph Deutsch and Saul Chaplin's Oscar-winning score.

Thrillingly energetic dances on film.
June 24, 2006
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.
April 09, 2012
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.

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.
