George Kennedy is no Yul Brynner and Monte Markham is no Steve McQueen and on and on and on. Guns of the Magnificent Seven went in a slightly different direction than the two Magnificent Seven movies that preceded it.
What's the same?
Mexico. Farmers. An injustice. Seven fighters. Pretty Mexican woman falling for one of the fighters.
What's different?
The enemy. The cast. The run time.
The differences aid the movie a lot more than the similarities with the exception of the cast. It's not that the cast was bad, it's just that they weren't the original Magnificent Seven and that will always be a negative.
