Logan M A more serious and brooding film than its lighthearted predecessor, but still just as good if not better. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/23 Full Review Audience Member " I'll explain afterwards..." Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Much more serious in tone than the original, and Morricone's music is haunting. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member 170418: I'm struggling for something to say. Rosita (Nieves Navarro) is the highlight. Nothing otherwise really stands out or comes to mind. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Not exactly a sequel to A pistol for Ringo, from the same director and featuring the same cast, the only thing this has in common with director Ducio Tessari's first 'Ringo' film was Italian actor Giuliano Gemma playing a character nicknamed Ringo. In this one, Gemma has returned from serving in the Civil War only to find a gang of banditos has taken over the town and has the townsfolk (including the sheriff) living in fear. Worst of all, the bandits killed Ringo's father, have taken over his family home, and one of the two outlaw leaders wants to force Ringo's wife to marry him. If it sounds familiar, it is. The plot is from Homer's Odyssey and Ringo disguises himself as a peon to determine what is going on and what action he should take. Tessari, like Sergio Corbucci, felt that an Italian Duster (Spaghetti Western) could be successful without an American actor in the cast. Filmed in the Almeria region of Spain, this film has a cast of Italian and Spanish actors, many (like Fernando Sancho) made frequent appearances in Italian Westerns. I'd give this film four stars except my DVD copy looks kind of washed out and the dubbing is terrible (I'd rather watch it in Italian with subtitles, oh well). One of Quentin Tarantino's favorite Spaghetti Westerns. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member The mystery and story is frustrating yet still engaging and the score is one of Morricone's lesser efforts, but The Return of Ringo is still a rousing spaghetti western classic with great dialogue and shootouts.
