Ford entering a small town with a flock of sheep instead of cattle is of course asking for trouble and under the initiative of Leslie Nielsen's character he is roughly thrown out of the town, but Ford does not give up that easily.
The tone is light in this western but not too much so it works very well.
In the end it turned out to be a nice, successful mix of western and comedy in which Ford plays his cool role wonderfully with a wink.
Nielsen as the villain does a nice job, who would have ever thought that he would become so comically famous in the naked gun.
Shirley MacLaine was also still young at the time and she plays her stubborn role with apparent pleasure.
