User Reviews

Standard for the genre

Despite the presence of Bruno Corbucci with this production, "Four Dollars Of Revenge" is for the most part your typical spaghetti western. Now, I have to admit that I like spaghetti westerns, so I was fairly entertained by this. But on the other hand, the movie is not really that exceptional in any way that will attract viewers who are not fans of spaghetti westerns. It's not a movie to introduce people to the genre. Still, the movie moves at a fairly breezy pace, never becoming boring at any moment. There are several okay action sequences, including a final action sequence of a kind that you will probably not expect for a western, spaghetti or otherwise. So if you're a spaghetti western fan, you'll probably enjoy this modest effort.
