6/10
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] Go to Full Review
Sergio Benítez Espinof 08/27/2019
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] Go to Full Review

Routine but dark and diverting action-packed Western that lifts its plotline from The Comancheros (1961). Go to Full Review

mark g @Mark_Alan_G. Dec 18 Hard to go wrong with a cast this good and scenery so exquisite. Truth be told, it doesn't go wrong, it's an interesting and entertaining film. The characters are well developed and this helps create the narrative of the story. The movie is worth a watch. Jim Brown doesn't get the credit he deserves as an actor. See more 08/14/2023 Good western recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas August 14, 2023 See more Deke P 07/02/2023 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. See more steve d 07/18/2020 Absolutely nothing new here. See more 05/31/2018 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.
