Editorial Review:

Product Description:
When a thoroughly urbanized executive is struggling to find meaning in his life, his two best friends find the perfect cure: a fantasy cowboy vacation. The three friends then rope and ride their way down a trail that leads to a better understanding of themselves and each other. Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern, and Bruno Kirby are exceptional as the three fish-out-of-water cowpokes, but Jack Palance steals the show in an Academy Award-winning performance.

Amazon.com:
Three middle-age buddies (Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern, Bruno Kirby) facing personal crises decide to sign up for a two-week cattle run for a change of pace. The trail proves a tougher place than anyone thought, and the boss (Jack Palance) is a grizzled taskmaster who doesn't cotton to tenderfoot urbanites. Popular in theaters, the film is both funny and moving, with Crystal giving one of his most complete performances and Palance (who won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar) a lot of colorful fun. Director Ron Underwood (Heart and Souls) subtly shifts the tone of the film from broad comedy to poignancy over its running time, and he makes the story's end a bittersweet victory that feels like life as most people know it. --Tom Keogh

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Charming
Nothing like two weeks herding cattle on a dude ranch in New Mexico and Colorado to clear up a pesky case of middle age angst. Actually I wouldn't know, but watching the timeless comedy CITY SLICKERS gives me a pretty good idea. When three New Yorker buds (Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern, and Bruno Kirby), all with midlife crises of their own (although Crystal's seems forced and contrived), venture west to do something they know nothing about (ranching), the fun truly begins. From learning to ride ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very funny
A humorous story about married guys going to a dude ranch to help them get a tilt on their lives. A great movie to buy for the entertainment value dollar. Another great addition to have in your DVD library.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Still funny, even for today's teens!
Watched "City Slickers" with my two children: 17-year-old daughter and 14-year-old son. Wasn't sure it would be as funny as I remembered when I saw it when it was released originally. I asked them to watch it for 30 minutes and we could turn it off if they weren't enjoying it. Well, we watched the whole thing and it was as great, if not better, as I remember. My children loved it! My daughter fell in love with Norman, and my son wants to go on a cattle drive.

As we watched the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Greatest "Guy" Movie Ever (Yet, With Feeling)
As old as the "Men are from Mars, Women are from Jupiter" ponderings is the difference between "guy" films and "chick flicks". Though not trying to stereotype the genders too much here, the camp of movie-goers that will watch "The Notebook" or "A Walk To Remember" have different hormones flowing through them as those that go to "Terminator Salvation" or "Rambo IV". There's just a fundamental difference that often cannot be overcome by either gender.

"City Slickers", however, is the rare ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Amusing In Parts But Poor DVD Quality!
Very few comedies age well and this one isn't an exception; some of the jokes are still funny but many have aged poorly and have become lame as a result. The fortunate thing though is that this film is not just an outright comedy but it also has a timeless theme of dealing with mid-life crisis and understanding that "one thing" in life that matters.

For this reason, this film will still amuse and remain relevant for some years to come. Too bad this dvd version is so poor though as the picture ... Read More
