Three men of the city (Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern and Bruno Kirby) who are going through a mid-life crisis go to the Wild West to take part in a cattle drive. Supposedly, this adventurous escapade will relieve stress and offer something new in their dull deteriorating lives. "City Slickers" can be considered one of the funniest movies of the 90's and it still finds time to be heartwarming without being corny. Jack Palance won a best supporting actor Academy Award for his fine performance as trail boss Curly.
