Trivia:
After Tennessee and Trixie's performance in the bar, a bar patron comments that it was better than Eagles. The patron is Don Henley, who once performed with The Eagles and who provided the singing voice for Tennessee. The female companion he says it to is Bonnie Raitt, who provided the voice for Trixie. more

It was better than I thought it would be..., 30 July 2002
8/10
Author: SoCalGal from Southern California

I'm afraid that the Disney Company made an enormous mistake in how they chose to market this particular motion picture.

If I hadn't already gotten a ticket (group sales tickets via a friend), I would NEVER have gone to see this movie based on the movie trailers and television commercials that I've seen thus far.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a pretty funny movie!

I recognize that there will undoubtedly be some people that won't "get" this film. So, try to imagine the 1984 film "This Is Spinal Tap" but with Zeb, Ted, Fred and Tennessee (The Country Bears) playing the parts of David, Nigel & Derek. It's a stretch, but worth the effort.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film and recommend it as a great family film!

P.S. I especially liked the song, "Kick It Into Gear" sung by Jennifer Paige. It was very, very good!
