Joel H I don't know if there's a better mid-life crisis movie than City Slickers. And while I watched it a lot as a kid, this film hits a little differently as a middle-aged adult. It wrangles just the right mix of humor and sentimentality. This could have been a goofy, over-the-top comedy about three idiots in the middle of a cattle drive, but instead it has a heart that keeps its boots firmly on the ground. Crystal hits a home run in the lead role, and Jack Palance is menacingly warm as the ever-memorable cowboy Curly. It makes me smile to see that City Slickers still holds up after all these years. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/07/23 Full Review Gareth v A decent enough comedy whose strength lies in the performances of it's leads (Crystal, Kirby, Palance & Stern) as well as some excellent cinematography. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/17/23 Full Review Lelo t I think the movie was good except for some parts. My favorite part was when the flood happens and they save the cow.Sadly some of the characters I would have liked to have for the whole movie didn't stay but I still like the 3 main characters Mostly didn't like the part that if you watched the movie you would know what I'm talking about, but I did like the character development. That's all for this review and I will see you in the next one. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/24/23 Full Review B. B A really fun movie full of laughs & some drama. I never get tired of watching it. If you like Billy Crystal, this is definitely one of his best movies. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/15/23 Full Review georgan g This is a classic. It does just what movies are supposed to do, namely entertain on many levels. Laughs, of course, but you will feel many emotions while watching. It's one of those rare flicks that you really want to see every few years! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member City Slickers is one of the reasons that films from the early 90s were so great. Many films from the early 90s revolved around adult themed troubles and no one did it better than Billy Crystal. Crystal had nearly 3 decades of being at the forefront of the comedic world, but in the late 80s and the early 90s, he really stood out on his own and made many enjoyable movies of the time that have become much more relatable at my current age. The writing, directing, and acting in this film was stellar and I miss these perfect storms of film making as many of the films today have some of the parts, but never everything it needs to be great. Because we decided to talk about this film 30 years later on our podcast, it's evident this film has stood the test of time and is as relative for GenXrs today as it was for our Boomer parents back when the film was released. I'm giving this movie an absolute PLAY, and a part of me assumes everyone else in the world does as well. If you didn't care for this movie, then I'd argue you're dead inside and have no soul. - BiAP Del Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
