Ganbgs of Fun!
When I first saw this movie, it was on a whim. I didn't know what to expect, but I saw the cast and figured that I couldn't lose. I went into the theatre, sat down and was immediately taken back to the fifties when I would religeously watch the westerns that littered the airways way back before the advent of Cable TV. Rustlers Rhapsody is just lots of fun, especially if you remember the likes of Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Tex Ritter, and The Lone Ranger. The fancy clothes, the silver saddle, the polished two-gun rig and of course, the Wonder Horse. Rustlers Rhapsody is a tip of the hat to all that, and more. When I say more, they even make fun of Modern day westerns like the Italian gems we had seen in the 70's. Interjected with modern day humor and moral values, I had to laugh at all the gags and situations presented. (I am especially fond of the scene where the short cowpoke walked up to the town drunk and asked for a light.) If you want a good old fashioned fun time, I heartily recommend Rustlers Rhapsody. If you were born between 1945 and 1955, this one will touch a nerve and keep you giggling for a good while.

Great Movie!
This movie is a must have for anyone who remembers the old "B" westerns. There are a couple of reviews complaining about a deleted scene. Don't worry about it! The movie moves along nicely and makes perfect sense without it. As for a resolution to the "confident heterosexual" gag, it comes in the last scene.

VHS review
One of the other reviewers noted an important scene in the DVD (where our hero "becomes a confident heterosexual") has been cut. Its also missing in the VHS version too, so be warned. When comparing running times, the DVD indicates 88 minutes, the VHS 89 minutes. So I thought the scene where Berenger does the wild thing with Sela Ward for the first time existed on the VHS. Nope. This is really a critical scene as a setup for the running joke in the movie. In addition, it's absence causes part of the final scene's dialog to come off as, well, nonsense.
