DVD Synopsis
In this action comedy, director Gregg Champion relies on the premise that, indeed, "country boys can survive," as Sonny (Kiefer Sutherland) and Pepper (Woody Harrelson, always game) head off to the Big Apple in order to rescue a mutual friend's daughter from the clutches of an evil sweatshop owner. Naturally, there are lots of encounters highlighting the two fishes out of water; there are opportunities to lasso bad guys; there's even a chase on horseback through the city streets after Sonny and Pepper steal a pair of NYPD horses. ~ Jeremy Beday, All Movie Guide
Gregg Chapman's buddy action comedy The Cowboy Way comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while a Spanish soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. Spanish subtitles are accessible, and the English soundtrack is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include biographies of the cast and crew, the theatrical trailer, and production notes. This is a strong disc from Columbia/TriStar. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

Worth a look. I don't think this is one you'll put in your top ten, or even top 100 movies...but it takes the old...wild west guy goes to New York and has a little fun with it. Think McLeod TV series in the 1970's?.60's? Harrelson is good as the funny guy. Sutherland okay as straight man. Ernie Hudson is solid as sympathetic cop.
