This classic comic western sees sweet and innocent Jane Fonda turn desperado with the help of an inept outlaw and the town drunk. Great fun, especially Lee Marvin's turn as both the alcoholic ex-gunslinger and his tin-nosed nemesis.

A pretty good western comedy about a bunch of outlaws doing stuff. Mostly they just do stuff and it does not really have a compelling plot or anything but it is fun to watch. It fun and fast paced and everything and I guess that is what makes it work. It is not brilliant but it is completely enjoyable to watch. Oscar Win Best Actor Lee Marvin 4/5- This is not a stretch for Marvin to play a gun slinger since he did it constantly but this time he brings comedy to the role. He is funny and steal scenes as the drunk brother and is thoroughly enjoyable to watch although it probably was not a great challenge for him. The other brother was probably not a challenge in anyway since he really does not do anything.
