Don't watch this if you're older than 10...

This is an Austrian Western comedy. It is around about as silly as you can get. Peter Alexander is count Bobby, going to the Wild West, where he immediately ends up as Sheriff in some goon-plagued town. There is very little in terms of a plot (a girl dressing up as boy, some bad guys and lots of slapstick)

However, it is a fun kids' movie. It was one of my favourite movies as a kid, as it is full of those harmless and bizarre settings that kids find funny. The songs were alright, too.

If you're an adult, you won't believe your eyes and ears at how stupid and outdated this is. But for your kids, this might just be the kind of harmless fun that they seek in a Western.

If you have no idea what this movie is like, think of "Pardners", an old Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis Western slapstick comedy of 1956. This movie was made in much the same spirit.
