He must foil a land-grabbing governor (Brooks) with help from a washed-up, pot-smoking gunslinger (Gene Wilder).

Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that Blazing Saddles is a classic spoofy comedy with bawdy language, sexual innuendo, and a send up of racism that younger viewers may not be able to understand and therefore misinterpret. Drinking and prostitution are also lampooned. There are some laughs at the expense of flamboyant characters who are meant to be thought of as gay.

Sexual Content

Some sexual innuendo. Cleavage.

Violence

Mostly cartoon-ish slapstick violence. Rape jokes.

Language

Plenty of swearing, repeated racial slurs made in jest.

Social Behavior

Not applicable

Consumerism

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

Cigar smoking, heavy drinking
