halfway through i realized i meant to watch midnight cowboy lmao
BilboBallinMar 16, 2021John Travolta spends one half of “Urban Cowboy” on a mechanical bull and the other half beating up his wife. It was a cultural reset! No really, it was. For how mediocre and pointless director James Bridges’ “Urban Cowboy” is as a film, it was also one of the most…

who knew that a mechanical bull could cause this much drama
nico ⛽️Dec 25, 2020I found it genuinely difficult to tell if this film loves the Travolta character or despises him and his antiquated machismo. It’s not exactly ambivalent, just feels caught between sneering ‘70s movie antihero (anything Hoffman, Pacino, Nicholson) and the brutish ‘80s…
Sean FennesseyJan 14, 2015Sure it's well made and has some good performances but c'mon, it's a film about mechanic bull riding.

Saturday Night Rodeo ”My wife is living in a trailer outside of Gilley’s with an ex-convict, and I’m getting a divorce.” Welcome to the world’s most expensive honky tonk commercial. Of course it’s always great to see Barry Corbin, and Scott Glenn completely owns…

Essentially the glorification of domestic violence and sexism poorly despised as a romance
This movie is so dumb. I almost want to say it’s so bad it’s good, but I can’t lie when I say I guiltily enjoyed it. The characters are the most frustrating I’ve ever witnessed and half the decisions they make kill you inside, but I’m pretty sure that’s what makes it special 6/10

I really took a long time to finish it but I really did like it I’m glad bud swallowed his pride and apologized to sissy. Also the movie was very much semi homoerotic lol the whole time I was like ok getting competitive over riding🏳️🌈 sissy’s sexy ride was very very hot tho
A cowboy classic. I loved it as a child. But now as I watch it older. It’s kind dumb, however I still love it because it gives me nostalgia.

Urban Cowboy is the most entertaining, most perceptive commercial American movie of the year to date. Here is a tough-talking, softhearted romantic melodrama that sees a world that is far more bleak than the movie, or the characters in it, ever have time to acknowledge.
