The movie centers on a Yankee(Lou Castel) who joins forces an outlaw band (leading Gian Mª Volonte and Klaus Kinski)during the Mexican revolutionary war by time of the leader Salustiano Carranza.
It's a magnificent western film with dazzling shootouts between the protagonists and the contenders. The spotlights movie are the confronting in the train and the final duel. There is a special remembrance to Leone's western, thus work : Volonte,Kinski and Aldo Sambrell who are usually in the master's Spaghetti films. This film belongs to the numerous group that are set during the Mexican revolution, called ¨Zapata Western¨ , like are the Italians: ¨Compañeros, The mercenary ,Tetepa¨ and the Americans : ¨The wild bunch and The professionals¨. The picture blends violence,blood, action western and it's fast movement and for that reason is entertaining, besides there is thoughtful dialog with a clever writing by Franco Solinas. Enjoyable music by Luis Enrique Bacalov, author of ¨The Postino and Pablo Neruda¨ which won an Oscar for his soundtrack and he composed lots of Spaghetti Western scores. The motion picture is rightly directed by Damiano Damiani.
Rating: Good. Well worth seeing.
