Yasser Medina Cinefilia A western that fails to unite the whole or dynamize a rhythm that, after all, advances like a stagecoach with sleeping horses. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 May 5, 2021 Full Review Sergio Benítez Espinof The efforts made in the creation of the characters are somewhat dazzled by a story that avoids getting to the point, however, it does not completely ruin the work. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 27, 2019 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Routine but dark and diverting action-packed Western that lifts its plotline from The Comancheros (1961). Rated: C+ May 16, 2008 Full Review Chuck O'Leary FulvueDrive-in.com Rated: 2/5 May 7, 2007 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 3/5 Jul 21, 2005 Full Review Philip Martin Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Rated: 2/5 Jan 2, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Good western recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas August 14, 2023 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/14/23 Full Review Deke P Excellent old 'Western'. Good plot. No hokey nonsense. Starring RICHARD BOONE, in his iconic persona as an irascible, gruff, ornery, cantankerous tough guy, predating his great PALADIN tv series. I wrote more but RT snafu lost it and haven't time to redo it now. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/05/23 Full Review steve d Absolutely nothing new here. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was pretty good, considering. I've always found old-skool westerns to be pretty bad, technicolor, cardboard acting, old men being passed off as young ones, etc. But the plot & script were quite good, and the old-style acting was very entertaining, made me laugh. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member one of my most favorite westerns of all time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Typical, enjoyable western for those who enjoy watching westerns. And I enjoy watching westerns. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
