While this film is by no means as good of a film as a Sergio Leone western from the spaghetti western heyday, it is much better than your average spaghetti western from its heyday period. They made many films when these kind of films were popularized by such films as For a Few Dollars More, Django, and Minnesota Clay comparative to the amount of B westerns that Hollywood poured out in the 30's, 40's, and 50's due to the popularity of films such as 'Stagecoach'. Think of it as a spaghetti western slapped into a Robert Rodriguez film. Its quite fun really. Estevez, Forsythe, and Long all give good performances. The script is well written, and somewhat poetic, and beautiful in the end. I would really rate the film really as a 6.5 out of 10 stars, but I gave it a 7 out of 10 since some other users apparently did not think very much of it. You will certainly enjoy it if you are a fan of Emilio Estevez, as I am. I think it is one of his more enjoyable films. He fits the character very nicely.

I just got the DVD I love this Movie Every since I seen it on TV took for ever to find it on DVD for USA. It funny how his gun never need to be reloaded but two to three times. there are a few great one liners in this movie.If you think Clint Eastwood did some far out shooting wait till you see this he kills more men in one shoot out then Clint would do in one movie.Emilio Estevez is a one man army he has handguns that seem to appear out of no were If you like Spaghetti Westerns your sure to love this one. It is filled with comedy as well as lighting fast gun play As they search for all the section of the map to the cash of confederate gold The movie could use a few more twist and turns but it great just the way it is I have watch it three times this week to me it is Awesome.Also buy the way I found the DVD on amazon.com.

I would have liked a few more plot twists and turns but was entertained by this film for the most part. I thought the guy who played the padre & the mean Federale captain, Jordi Molla, did a very good job acting. Also good was Dulley, the one-legged companion to Estevez. The photography was pretty good, beautifull scenery & I loved the movie score that went with it. It was interesting to note at the closing credits that the whole film was filmed in Spain. I would of sworn the film took place somewhere in the southwestern United States. Also interesting was the old-fashioned "machine gun" that Dulley used toward the end of the flick. I wouldn't mind having this video in my own library.

I had hoped that this was a badly made spoof, but alas no.This is not a good western. Emilio Estevez simply does not look the part in the lead role. Having him being part of a group of teen bandits may have worked, but as a supposed a 'mysterious stranger' it does not.Estevez grimaces, squints and scowls in all the right places but he just seems like a college kid on a day trip to the country. The first gunfight in a bar was quite amusing in places, though this was probably not the directors intention, as he desperately tries to paint Estevez as a highly skilled and near god-like gunman of the Wild West.You are led to believe that Estevez can drop his whisky, pick up his gun (which seems to be some sort of automatically reloading sixty-shooter), shoot people though walls and doors with the aid of some kind of X-ray vision, and catch his whisky before it hits the floor.The plot revolves around a chase for a hidden fortune, which is a fair basis for a western, like Sergio Leone's brilliant The Good, The Bad and the Ugly starring Clint Eastwood. Even Clint Eastwood has to reload _his_ gun once in a while.But towards the end I wasn't involved enough to care if they ever got the money.
