8/10. It's 1850 and newly-ordained orthodox rabbi Avram Belinski sets out on horseback from Philadelphia to San Francisco, knowing only that California's "somewhere near New York." Cowpoke bandit Tom Lillard hasn't seen a rabbi before. But he knows when one needs a heap of help. And getting this tenderfoot to Frisco in one piece is going to cause a heap of trouble -- with the law, Indians and a bunch of ruthless killers.
Ride'em cowboy. This was a great hip hopping movie. Mel Brooks writing skills were on target on this one, and being a jew helped.
Wilder was awesome as the Rabbi. He was just too funny yet some of things he said and did were on the not so believable side, but hey makes for a funny movie anyway. Ford is great as always. Gotta tip my hat to him.
The cinematography was great here. Everything was set just right, and this movie sort of reminded me of Back to the Future Part 3.
All in all, this is a great movie that everyone should see.
