Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Wuchak Released to2001, "Wooly Boys" stars Peter Fonda and Kris Kristofferson as two aging sheep ranchers in the Badlands of North Dakota. After the former pays a visit to his daughter (Robin Dearden) in Minneapolis, he brings back his city-bred 16 year-old grandson (Joseph Mazzello). Keith Carradine plays a country sheriff, Rosanna DeSoto a ranch hand and Michael Booth an FBI agent. Jad Mager and Adam Logan are on hand as troublemakers while T. Mychael Rambo plays a hearse driver.This dramedy focuses is on the conflict-habituated friendship of the two older ranchers and the visiting teen being a fish-out-water in the wilderness, which brings to mind 2003's "Secondhand Lions." At around the 30-minute mark there are several laugh-out-loud scenes, which are less frequent throughout the rest of the movie. The lines of the idiotic FBI agent are the best. Beyond this, the cast and authentic North Dakota locations are great, but the movie's mediocre about half the time. For instance, the kid responds to Kristofferson's character in one scene and it's wholly unconvincing. A top-of-the-line movie would re-do the scene or ad lib; whatever it took to make it work. So it's one of those part good/part meh movies, but I think the good makes it worthwhile, like the laughs, the birthing scene, the cast and the ND locations.The film runs 99 minutes and was shot in Fryburg, Beach & Medora, North Dakota, and Minneapolis.GRADE: C+

lindaseinfeld I recently caught Wooly Boys on IFC, and I was glad to finally see the movie.I really love anything with Kris Kristofferson! He seemed like a natural cowboy. I laughed many times throughout the movie--especially at the Spratt brothers. Adam Stradlin (one of the Spratt brothers) looks like he could be a young John Travolta. He is so funny! It was great to see all the scenes that are set in Medora. Its worth seeing the movie just for all the gorgeous scenery. I used to go to the Medora Musical every year. I remember Bonnie being in the musical, and I see that she is now doing an online news show called News for Blondes. I missed her part in the movie, so I will have to wait till it comes on again.

km004a5534 Having looked everywhere for information about this film for well over a year, I was shocked when it suddenly popped up on Cable and Satellite last weekend. It was quite different to what I had expected, but nevertheless well worth the wait. If you are looking for a film that will make you laugh and make you cry, but leave you with a nice warm feeling inside, then look no further. The whole cast is excellent, without a weak link and there are fine performances by Peter Fonda, Kris Kristofferson and Keith Carradine. But, not for the first time, Joe Mazzello (Radio Flyer,Jurassic Park,The Cure, Simon Birch) steals the show.As Joe's character, Charles is taken, reluctantly, on the journey of a lifetime, he discovers a whole new world, his roots and himself. We, the viewers, see a hugely talented young actor and the character he portrays growing up before our very eyes. This is one film not to be missed!

Sid Barris I've just gotten out of a screening of this film and I have to say, WOW!This one will hopefully be up for some awards.Kris Kristofferson is as always charming, sexy, and wonderful. I loved his comic repartee with newcomer Adam Stradlin. Where did they find this guy, he's great!Stradlin has the intensity of a young Gary oldman and the charisma of Mel Gibson. Everyone shines.Lil' blond Bonnie Borst as the wacky greyhound bus passenger, this girl should have her own sitcom.Peter Fonda tops his performance in "The Limey" and really carries this film. Co-stars Greg Sporleader and Jad mager who I've heard are hardened Shakespeare thespians create believable in-bred hic's, better than Cooter and Roscoe P. Coltrane from "Dukes of Hazzard" I highly recommend it. 10!
