Review of City Slickers (1991) by Ben F — 28 Jan 2010
As a kid, I didn't like this movie at all, but just recently, I saw it on TV, and it's a rather enjoyable comedy. At the time, I probably didn't like it because of 1. Curly's excessive smoking (which I've since learned to deal with in movies) 2.
The conversations went over my head ("What's adultery?", I probably asked!) 3. The world of cowboys didn't appeal to me. Anyway, I digress. The writing's good, and you start to really get most of the characters by the end.
Billy Crystal strikes the right balance with humor; he's witty and funny while not hamming it up. City Slickers isn't not a comedic goldmine, but it is a good fun movie.
