    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The story that Billy Crystal tells about his "best day" of going to a Yankees game with his father is a true story from his childhood. He notes at one point that, "I still have the program." Not only does he really still have it, but he got Mickey Mantle to autograph it twice: once at the game that day and once again some 20 years later on a talk show they were both guests on.
    • Goofs
      During the stampede, when Mitch is up a tree, the metal fencing around the base of the tree to keep the cattle away is visible.
    • Quotes

      Mitch Robbins: Alright Ed, your best day, what was it, twins in a trapeze, what?

      Ed Furillo: No, I don't wanna play.

      Mitch Robbins: C'mon, we did it.

      Ed Furillo: I don't feel like it.

      Mitch Robbins: Uh, okay.

      [pause]

      Ed Furillo: I'm 14 and my mother and father are fighting again... y'know, because she caught him again. Caught him... This time the girl drove by the house to pick him up. And I finally realized, he wasn't just cheating on my mother, he was cheating us. So I told him, I said, "You're bad to us. We don't love you. I'll take care of my mother and my sister. We don't need you any more." And he made like he was gonna hit me, but I didn't budge. And he turned around and he left. He never bothered us again. Well, I took care of my mother and my sister from that day on. That's my best day.

      Phil Berquist: What was your worst day?

      Ed Furillo: Same day.

    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits show a cartoon of a cowboy practicing with a lasso
    • Alternate versions
      German version is cut by approx. four minutes (a lengthy dialogue scene where the guys ride through a valley). This was reinstated for the 2003 MGM DVD release.

    Kind of sneaks up on you.
    The first time I saw this film I thought it was a piece of wasted Hollywood fluff. Then I watched it again for some reason and liked it a little more. The third time I watched this film I became hooked. City Slickers is wonderful fun. Billy Crystal is perfect in the mid-life crisis role and Jack Palance has been waiting for this part his whole career. Ron Underwood did a great job with this one. It seemed cliched at first, then I realized it is a great original piece of comedy film-making.
