Synopsis: This is the classic romance between a woman, a man and the horse he loves. When a wild bunch of robbers start terrorizing the wagon trail in the untamed west, two lawmen come riding (undercover)... This is the classic romance between a woman, a man and the horse he loves. When a wild bunch of robbers start terrorizing the wagon trail in the untamed west, two lawmen come riding (undercover) into a one-horse town to capture the gold marauders. And the moment beauteous local saloon mistress Mike spots righteous cowboy Roy, she falls right in love with him. Only problem: he prefers his horse to girls. Into the midst of this lunacy -- and making matters worse -- steps Ivy League-educated tenderfoot Paleface Potter Jr, who's only concerned with getting his inheritance. But when he takes a shine to Mike, the lawmen hope Paleface will expose her as the criminal ringleader... while she just hopes he'll go away! [More]

A solid Western spoof, but not as funny as the original.

One of the rare sequels that is clearly better than the original.

Wild, cartoonish comedy. Possibly Hope's masterpiece.
