Ashley H Sabata is a decent film. It is about a master gunfighter who sides with a banjo-playing drifter and a Mexican tramp to foil the dignitaries of Daugherty. Lee Van Cleef and William Berger give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Gianfranco Parolini did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the action and drama. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Lee Van Cleef in a Western, poor script, average supporting cast = so-so Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member I am a big fan of older Western, but this one was a little bit ridiculous in that Lee Van Cleef could hit a stick of dynamite in almost pure Darkness from a hundred yards away. I've never seen a movie with three gunman killing at least 50 bad guys. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I'd watch it again if it's on. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/21 Full Review Audience Member A classic spaghetti western the Hollywood doesn't make anymore. Hopefully more companies revive these movies again. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/20 Full Review Audience Member Sabata (Lee Van Cleef), a man of few words, arrives in a small Texas town to foil a bank robbery, and discovers that it was a plot by the town's leaders, who want to sell the town to the railroad. Sabata blackmails the leader, Stengel, who then sends various thugs to try and kill him, among them a conflicted killer named Banjo, so named for the musical instrument he carries that conceals a rifle... Sabata (Ehi amico ... c'è Sabata. Hai chiuso!, lit. "Hey buddy ... that's Sabata. You're finished!"), is a 1969 Italian Spaghetti Western directed by Gianfranco Parolini. It is the first film in The Sabata Trilogy by Parolini, and stars Lee Van Cleef as the title character. This Spaghetti Western is a partly wobbly production in my eyes. The main character Sabata, is a gunman of almost superhuman accuracy and questionable morals and his weapon of choice is a peculiar four-barreled derringer, alongside a rifle with an extended barrel. Lee Van Cleef fits the role, but the character is a bit over the top in my mind. A bit too much superhuman. I think "Sabata" is uneven with a so so storyline.
