Stephen C Success in 1 hour and 57 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/19/25 Full Review Audience Member Very bad. I expected a lot more based on the director and reviews Dont waste your time. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review RICHARD S I won't repeat preceding plot comments. I felt impatient all the way through for this movie to end. Some of the violence was without purpose and certainly didn't add to the humor or character development. Many scenes pointless. Fonda and Hill (sort of) did the best they could with their roles, but somehow this film just wastes their talents. Cinematography impressive at times, but the whole experience slow moving and on the dull side. Unless you really want to see Fonda and/or Hill in action, you will want to skip this film. Way too pretentious. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. It's a great riff on the myths/legends of the West and wanting to become famous without understanding the consequences. Fonda is really good as the cool gunfighter and Hill is really good as the upcoming jokester. Their polar opposites but have good chemistry and great character arcs. The ending is really sweet too a big suprise for a decade known for darkness. The humor is pretty good too. Lots of slapstick but ti's pretty good and well setup. Excellent cinematography and the gun shooting scenes are always so cool. Super catchy comedic and western soundtrack that blends the two perfectly. It's a bit weird at first but it really fits the tone of the film. Everything else is really good. Sometimes it can get a bit too carried away with the slapstick moments but overall it finds a good balance and I really did like the ending. Kind of suprising. Everyoen should give this a try once. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Jay W This movie marks a unique marriage of serious grounded western action and the zany hijinks of more oddball comedies. At this point, Sergio Leone had already made his most influential and subversive westerns of all time with the "Dollars Trilogy", and "Once Upon a Time in the West", starring Henry Fonda. On the other side, Enzo Barboni had made a comedic Western trilogy, the "Trinity Trilogy" starring Terrence Hill. The pairing of these two icons from two very different kinds of westerns leads to a very peculiar movie. Terrence Hill plays "Nobody" in a very similar way to his character of "Trinity" in Barboni's trilogy. Throughout the film he is trying to persuade Henry Fonda's Jack Beaurgard to challenge "The Wild Bunch". Not to be confused with the Wild Bunch from the 1969 film. The things that help make this film stand out from the mountains of Westerns out there are the comedy, the character of Nobody and the sheer size of the final battle. The Wild Bunch is a group of about 150 outlaws, and there are camera shots where you see all of the horsemen riding across the horizon together. It is a sight to be seen. In all the westerns I've seen, I have never seen a final gang as large as the Wild Bunch in this movie. It is a cool showdown, and they do it in such a way that I could believe the results. The film has a very dry, and very odd sense of humor. Some of the jokes work, the way Nobody hi-jacks a train is hilarious. But more often than not, the jokes are shot and paced in such a way that its unclear what is meant to be a joke. A lot of humor comes down to the timing, and the timing of this film is just a bit off. Understand comedy is a subjective thing, but most did not work for me. The movie also could have been about 15 minutes shorter. Overall, this movie is a bit of a mixed bag. It is a high stake explosive Western and a strange offbeat comedy. If you are in the mood for both of those at once, this is the film for you. Surely that combination is for somebody, even if their name is Nobody. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review Gorptholemew T 🍅 6.3/10 Hes one straight shooter, actually fun fact that’s what they called my daddy before I came out of hims balls. Pretty fun little charming film really picks up by the end. Takes a while to get into it but if you like westerns, I’d recommend it to you.
