- GoofsIn an early sequence, Jenny is totally soaked from coming home in a storm without cover. But when she arrives, her hair and clothing look to be none the worse from her long exposure to the deluge and trudge to their ranch..
Featured review
Liked Watching it, though it was Pretty Mediocre
I watched the original Spanish version undubbed. I couldn't find any extant subtitles, so I had to rely on my fair to middling Spanish. I never read a synopsis before seeing it and wrote my own afterwards to see how much I had gotten, and was surprised it was pretty much spot on, so I think I understood what I was seeing.
Best part: 100% Mexican spaghetti western. Surprisingly few of the Paella sub-genre, the Italian-Spanish co-productions are in Spanish. I like the Italian, but I'd like to see a few that take place in Mexico where they're actually speaking Spanish. And it's filmed in Mexico. That part is really great.
I liked the weapons. I'm a re-enactor and member of the Single Action Shooting Society, so I'm always noticing the weapons, techniques and seeing if it matches the time period. I liked these. Pretty much identical to all my replicas, that gave the gun play an added dimension.
Weakest factor? The freaking' SOUNDTRACK. It is awful- in a trite sort of way- beyond imaging. Cringeworthy. They reuse the same awful melody constantly, not only being tedious, but often totally out of emotional sync with the action.
The plot is really simple. Hey, I understood it. Kind of a nice take on the "everyone's a jackass except me" kind of spaghetti western. The special effects cinematography is really awful, like the sound track, though. Everything from dynamite moving a railroad tie about a quarter of an inch to a .45 revolver blowing up a locomotive head on.
I enjoyed it, in spite of the weaknesses, so I have to give it at least a six, though, technically speaking, it's no six. Like I said, I liked it. Maybe I'm just chuffed at the fact I understood the gist of it. If so I guess I shouldn't complain that the plot was pretty simple.
