One of the funniest films I have ever seen. Who knew that Westerns could be funny without being slapstick parodies (see Mel Brooks)…

Its a weird movie that exists somewhere between a parody of westerns and a loving homage to them…

A genuinely funny movie that parodies the western genre very well and must have been the inspiration for Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles…

You have to be a Bill Murray fan, or in an especially generous mood, to find The Man Who Knew Too Little more than mildly amusing…
