Sergeants 3

About This Movie

So, 'Sergeants 3' is a rather unique blend of comedy and Western, directed by John Sturges. It captures this rowdy camaraderie of three Cavalry sergeants—Mike, Chip, and Larry—who are stationed out in the wilds of Indian Territory around 1870. The film’s tone dances between slapstick humor and a light-hearted take on military life, contrasting the rugged backdrop of the West. There’s an easy pacing to it, not rushed but enough to keep you engaged. The performances are pretty solid; you can feel the chemistry among the leads. It’s also interesting how it leans into those classic Western tropes while subverting them with humor. The practical effects are typical of the era, but they add to the charm, don’t you think?
