Please note that my review is done in context of knowing who Bobby Darin was and that he was one of the greatest entertainers in human history. That can't be ignored. It makes this movie of historical significance by that virtue alone.
This is an entertaining move staring one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Bobby was a solid actor and he holds his own in this western which was made near the end of the long run of western movies.
Bobby plays a Civil War veteran racked with guilt for accidentally killing one of his friends in battle. During most of the movie Bobby's character wears black gloves which represent his guilt. They don't explain that you have to figure it out for yourself, which was cool.
This movie is about a man and his guilt. That's the deep undercurrent of this western, which makes it quite interesting. It's not about a one-dimensional hero.
There are standard western elements which is to be expected. Audiences have expectations and the movie studios are very mindful of that.
Overall, this is must see for Bobby Darin fans. You will highly enjoy this movie.

People like to make fun of 70's entertainment now and say that everything was "ridiculous" and "silly" and "cheesy", but they just don't get it. Personally, I think modern TV shows and movies take themselves way too seriously and they look ridiculous to me. So it all depends on your personal perspective.
I had a lot of fun watching this. Did I see it back in 1975? I can't remember. That was the year I graduated from high school and that's about all I can remember from 1975.
There are so many delicious nuggets in this movie. The stars, the stars, the stars. The stars alone make this worth watching. And there are dozens of quotable lines. This must have been a very fun script to write.
But the most fun for me was that it took me back to the 70's, the decade that launched me into puberty. And Farrah Fawcett launched me into pubescent orbit! It was a thrill ride all through the 70's.
Just a side note about Farrah Fawcett, when she made a guest appearance on a TV show before she was famous, the next day in school the entire class was buzzing about her, even the teacher! She was a revelation. And such a sweet, sweet person.
Movies like this help keep the 70's alive even if everybody doesn't get it. I got it then and I still get it now. Long live the 70's!

They say that all great geniuses are masters of simplicity. This movie is a masterpiece of simplicity.
First of all, the title is spectacularly good. The Monolith Monsters. Say it again. The Monolith Monsters. It rolls off the tongue like the phrase of a great poet. The Monolith Monsters.
Okay. So we know there are going to be monsters, and we know they're going to be big. What more do you need to know?
Well, it starts with a mystery. A mystery that builds into monsters. Big monsters. Lots of monsters. Monsters like you've never seen before. Great, mysterious, monolithic monsters!
Anybody who can't appreciate the genius of this movie should never do movie reviews ever again, and should probably never have children. This is a work of classic genius.
I'm in, baby! Let me sit down and watch The Monolith Monsters! 10 out of 10 on a scale of 10!
