When the bank tries to foreclose on their home, a trio of cows head out to the big city to try and raise money to pay their owner’s debts. They learn of a bandit with a price on his head that would cover their bills so the cows saddle up to catch the bad guy and get the bounty. Sure, it’s a crazy idea, but it works, thanks to some really great animation, as well as the vocal talents of Roseanne Barr, Judy Dench and Jennifer Tilly as the cows. In terms of plot, it’s a pretty straightforward Disney cartoon, but the art used to tell it takes a walk on the wild side in the few final scenes that raises the film to a whole other level. There is a chase sequence that takes place on the mining car tracks of an abandoned gold mine that is exciting to watch, and a fluorescent yodeling scene – yes you read that right — that’s downright trippy.
