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.

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.

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

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]

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