Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

A satire of western films, "Rustler's Rhapsody" opens with the narrator introducing the audience to Rex O'Herlihan (Tom Berenger), a singing cowboy riding into town on his trusty horse, Wildfire. As the narrator ponders what westerns would be like if they were still made today, O'Herlihan is thrust into a world of color, where he finds himself entering a cliché ridden town where the evil cattle tycoon, played by Andy Griffith, teams up with the new raincoat-clad Italian cowboys as they attempt to rid the town of Rex and the sheep ranchers.

"Rustler's Rhapsody" is a hilarious send up of classic western films and spoofs what these films would be like if they were made today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best comedy western of all time, October 8, 2003
By Matthew Edmundson (Winter Haven, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love Rustler's Rhapsody. It's easily one of Tome Berrenger's best flicks ever. While most people view Blazing Saddles as the best western comic spoof, Rustler's to me blows it away. It's not nearly as raunchy and not quite as stupid.

Every time I watch this movie it leaves my stomach hurting because of all the times I'll laugh. There's a great cast to this movie. Tom Berrenger, Andy Griffith, Sela Ward, and many more people you'll recognize. That's another reason I can't beleive people haven't seen this.

The story is a western spoof. The hero comes to the western town being used and abused by the evil cattle baron. The hero must stop them and overcome some of his own problems. The story also reveals why the bad guys always lose and why the good guys always win.

The movie is great. I guarentee it will make you laugh and laugh hard. If you don't like spoofs then you probaly won't like Rustler's Rhapsody. If you like Blazing Saddles you will definetly love Rhapsody. This is a must own. It's one of the greatest and funniest movies nobody has ever heard of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Welcome to Oakwood Estates..., January 24, 2000
By Paul S. Thompson (Detroit, Michigan) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a wonderful movie for those who love westerns and their cliches. Every cliche that ever appeared in a western has been lovingly put into this movie (i.e. bad guys with rifles are never a match for a good guy with a pistol). Tom Berenger plays Rex, the Singing Cowboy, with superb understatement. Andy Griffith plays the daft, dastardly Colonel perfectly (my favorite Griffith role). Marilou Henner and a young Sela Ward also appear. Be aware that this is a silly movie. If someone has to explain the humor of the opening sequence to you, it may not be for you. On, Wildfire, on!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Western Satire, June 6, 2004
By Jim Jr (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews
"Return with us now to the thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great hourse Silver, the lone (st)ranger rides again."

For anyone who can remember and quote these words and was raised watching Roy Rogers, Gene Autrey, Hopalong Cassidy, The Cisco Kid and Saturday morning westerns on black and white TV, or listening on the radio, this film is a hoot and a half. I rarely laugh out load at a film at home, but I was constantly laughing at this wonderfully funny film.

What great take offs on the typical western film characters and situations! The lone cowboy in clothes no self respecting cowboy would wear. A fantastic horse names Wildfire, who danced better than Gene Kelly or Fred Astire. The music hall hostess who charged $600 a night, but only talked to her clients (Miss Kitty from "Gunsmoke" maybe?)The town drunk who wants to become the hero's sidekick. The mysterious "root" that makes anyone eating it feel soooo good.

Tom Berenger is great as the virginal, overdressed hero. He kids this stereotype magnificently. G. W. Bailey almost steals the film as the drunk/sidekick. Marilu Henner is just right as the sexy hostess. Sela Ward is perfect as the villain's daughter who has a special problem with her horse. Andy Griffith makes a delightful comic "villain". The whole cast is wonderful.

Anyone who doesn't know the old westerns might be lost and think this film not too good, but for those who remember the "cowboys" mentioned earlier, this is a comic treasure!

Be sure to watch the credits at the end of the film to hear a lovely balled, "Lasso You The Moon", sung by Gary Morris.

This film is so much better than "Blazing Saddles" (which is a very funny film) without being crude or making rude ethnic jokes that leave today's audiences uncomfortable as does "Saddles".
