Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis movie was first announced as a remake of Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles, and was originally titled "Blazing Samurai". The writers of the original film recieved "screenplay by" credits, as the film lifts the plot and various jokes from Blazing Saddles and puts a more family-friendly spin on them.
- Crazy credits(opening credits) In association with a bunch of other guys too numerous to mention...
- Alternate versionsThe US theatrical and the UK Sky Cinema cuts differ in roughly five minutes. Most of this is allegedly attributed to the US version running at a lower frame rate, with the only real notable difference being the use of "Gangnam Style" in the UK version and a different song in the US. It's widely theorized that the change was due to being dated, as the peak of the "Gangnam Style" popularity was in the mid 2010s when "Blazing Samurai" was in production. Regardless, the song is still in the US end credits.

Featured review
Corny and kawaii and we loved it!
We saw this without knowing anything about its long development cycle. Once we heard that Cera, Talal, Jackson, and Mel Brooks were in this movie we had to see it. And who in their right minds won't be charmed by animated cats and dogs?
The critics overthought this remake of Blazing Saddles. Filled with both sight gags and loads of pop culture references, in addition to all the Blazing Saddles humor (and probably some Spaceballs gags as well), this quick-cut, display animated comedy was funny from start to end credits.
We thought it was cute and a great break from the doom and gloom of daily life. We would see it again to catch the bits that went by so quickly we did not get all of them on the first viewing.
