I always passed up at Best Buy the John Travolta collection, it had Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Urban Cowboy. Saw the first two, but never Urban Cowboy, but my mom just picked it up in a $5.00 bin and I'd figure to give it a chance. Since it seems like it was such a big hit for him. Urban Cowboy is kind of a fun movie, but what I wouldn't call a great film.
It's about a cowboy named Bud, well, turned into a cowboy. He's come down to Texas to work with his uncle. But he ends up meeting a sassy young beautiful girl, Sissy. They hit it off and get married, but end up finding out how different they are and not to mention Bud kind of takes Sissy for granted and treats her badly, in my opinion. They meet two other people, Wes, a cocky cowboy intending to take Bud's bull riding champion title away from him, and Pam, a city girl who is interested in getting herself a cowboy. But can these two just swallow their pride and admit that their "good" together?
Over all, Urban Cowboy is a memorable film for John Travolta and I can see why he was such a heart throb in his day. He was tough and not to mention very hot looking, him and Debra did make a cute connection through the film. Like I said though, I had little problems, mostly with the way the women are treated, but I know it was a movie. Over all, a fun one, so I'll be nice.
6/10
