Three recently out-of-work silent film actors known for their popular role as a trio of heroic gunfighters are recruited by a desperate Mexican village under attack by a gang of banditos who mistake them for the genuine article.
The real charm of this movie comes out of the chemistry between Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short, who bounce off each other seamlessly as they remain ignorant of what's happening. It was never particularly well regarded, even at the time of its release, but it's a weirdly reassuring Western comedy from a period of film that's fun to revisit from time to time again.
