Pop-culture time capsule dominated by Winger's breakthrough performance.
At their prime, John Travolta and Debra Winger make for a very sexy married couple in this James Bridges' musical drama, which launched the country and Western fad in music and film.
A versatile, intriguing Travolta vehicle
Ultimately it's enjoyable Hollywood stuff.
Urban Cowboy zeroes in the the desperate night life of frustrated individuals who find neither adventure nor fulfillment in their daytime existences.
Movies that just create silly fads are destined to linger long after their gimmicks have become jokes.
Flashy and silly; tries to be a country-Western "Saturday Night Fever," but misses the mark.
"aside from Winger, this soap opera is utterly dismal"
