Concrete Cowboys


Concrete Cowboys is a 1979 made-for-TV film starring Tom Selleck and Jerry Reed.
The plot involves two friends from Montana named J.D. and Will (played by Reed and Selleck) who quickly hop a train and leave town after card game turns to a fight involving the town sheriff. The two end up in Nashville, where they are mistaken for a couple of detectives and soon find themselves trying to solve the case of a missing/presumed dead armature country singer.
Of course, it's all an intricate blackmail scheme, with various twists and turns, and J.D. and Will narrowly escaping death a few times. 
It's not a great movie. Some of the acting is hit or miss, there are a couple of odd cuts and inconsistencies but, I had fun with it nonetheless. Selleck and Reed play well off each other, and I got a few laughs out of it.
Not a movie I'd highly recommend that you seek out but, if you come across it, give it a watch.
2.5 out of 5
