Synopsis
In this unfunny attempt at an 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 and the laughs that supposedly ensue (particularly at a party full of stereotypical yuppies); there are opportunities to lasso bad guys; there's even an implausible chase on horseback through the city streets after Sonny and Pepper steal a pair of NYPD horses. Unfortunately, there's not one funny moment to be found in this morass of bad scripting, bad direction, and bad clichés. ~ Jeremy Beday, All Movie Guide
