Review of City Slickers (1991) by Arthur Ryel-Lindsey for Slant Magazine — 10 Jul 2014
Equally self-reflective and enjoyable is the score by Marc Shaiman and Thomas Richard Sharp that cuts a sweeping western theme into the waltz and college-sports tunes that color the film’s animated title sequence and then throughout its more comic set pieces—not even cutting out entirely during Crystal and company’s rendition of the Bonanza theme song.
Rather, like the film itself, it beautifully accents Crystal’s high notes.
