If you've ever lived in the raw northern states of North/South Dakota, Iowa, Montana, Utah, Minnesota, then you have to find heart in Wooly Boys. Yes, it's a little slow, but the actors can't be beat, and for the baby boomer generation who really grew,and knew, that life style it was so fun. It just peeled back layers of years from me. Things I had forgotten we had done as kids and how much things have changed. Yes, it was great that his grandson experienced his life. Nothing can compare to hands on experience, nothing!!!!! We depended on each other. There were no fancy computers, phones, headsets etc. We knew the people around us, we knew our animals, we knew our enemies, and we knew our friends.

This movie is so good I bought two DVD's and gave one to a friend. It was very moving and sad in parts but also extremely funny. I like a comedy which inspires a good belly laugh.
April 7, 2008a fun movie with enough of a serious thread to pull you in and keep your interest. Peter Fonda adds a touch of class to any project he gets in and Kris Kristofferson plays the kind of character he revels in. A little absurd at times with a light touch that never veers out of control. A good family film to share with everyone. We really enjoyed this one.

I liked this movie, it was funny and had a good plot. It just doesn't portray North Dakota's people too well... Obviously, I live in North Dakota and don't be alarmed, we're not ALL rednecks. Just a few. I really don't have much else to say.
April 4, 2007On a par with Secondhand Lions. I don't normally care for Peter Fonda but his character and portrayal were the best.
