      Audience Member This one was really good. With a wacky plot, good supporting actors and a road trip story taht allowed the characters to chew up and sing thier way across America, the film even borrows heavily from the 1930's WB gangster craze as Gene and his troop have to fight off gangsters. A lot of fun and definetely one of the better films. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member 6.5/10. Very entertaining western, good songs, a fun plot and the cast is quite good. Short and sweet, with appreciated doses of humor.
