Comic genius Billy Crystal (When Harry Met Sally) stars in this hilarious film about cowboys, careers and mid-life crises. Co-starring Daniel Stern, Bruno Kirby and Jack Palance in an Academy AwardÂ(r)-winning* role, City Slickers is "the rowdiest western jokefest since Blazing Saddles" (Rolling Stone). It'll rope you in... and keep you laughing from first frame to last! New Yorker Mitch Robbins (Crystal) is 39 and miserable. He's tired of his job and bored with his life. And his two best friends Ed, (Kirby) and Phil (Stern), aren't doing much better. So when they all decide to chase their troubles away with a fantasy vacation, Mitch and his pals trade their briefcases for saddle bags and set out to find freedom and adventure herding cattle under the wide New Mexico sky. But what they discover instead is scorching sun, sore backsides... and more insight into themselves and each other than they ever thought possible!

DO NOT BUY THIS DVD FROM AMAZON!:
I received this DVD "City Slicker's the collector's Edition"(this is what it says on the DVD case) on 12-12-08, But when I put it in my player, it was just the regular version of "City Slickers"!!!!

A Definite Slicker:
I ordered this because it was supposed to be the Collector's Edition with Commentary, Featurettes & Deleted scenes. I received it and, while the cover states it is the Collector's Edition with the extras, it is not. So I returned it to Amazon, asking them to replace it, which they did remarkably quickly. Problem is, the replacement is exactly like the first one I received -- no commentary, no featurettes, no deleted scenes although the cover says they are there. So now I am trying to contact someone at... more info
Classic Billy Crystal:
A great movie in theaters and still fun to watch. The trio of Crystal, the late Bruno Kirby and Daniel Stern is hysterical. There is also the great supporting cast with Newman from Seinfeld and don't forget about Jack Palance as the old Marlboro man Curly. The bonus features are a nice addition to give you more insight into the cast and development of City Slickers. A great movie to have part of your collection.
Forensic Buff:
I really enjoy this movie. I don't know it I will get City Slicker 2 or not. I do like Billy Crystal. It came on time as promised. Thank you Amazon. The price was good too.
