Is it possible that a western with a cast of Jimmy Stewart, Dean Martin, George Kennedy and Raquel Welch can be any bad? Yes, if the Director is Andrew V. McLaglen. I'm a bit jealous about this guy and how he managed it to work with all these great actors in his career. Most of his movies are mediocre or bad. I can only call one or two really good.
My main critic about Bandolero is that this movie is shameless boring with a lot of meaningless talking and Horse riding without any action or suspense. The movie looks fine cause of the all time great cinematographer William H. Clothier. Shame on Hollywood this man never got the Academy Award! The music score of Jerry Goldsmith isn't bad either.
Jimmy Stewart and Dean Martin are looking very old in this one. Both have some terrible make up in their faces. Both are playing brothers and they are less believable as the casting of the Sons of Katie Elder. No doubt Mrs. Welch is a Stunner but who was responsible for her over styled hair? As usual good old George Kennedy is underused. A last question: Why Mexican Bandits (Bandoleros) are attacking with an Indian Cry? I love westerns but I'm not a fan of this one.
