REVIEWS

Review by Sheron Phelps (posted on 14-Mar-2008)

This is perhaps the best western movie I have ever seen. Aside from the fact that it brings together some of the finest actors available (including amazing character actors Woody Strode and Jack Elam), the costumes, the scenery and the action are amazing! To my knowledge, this is the only role where Henry Fonda plays a "super baddie" and he does it so well that it makes me wonder why he's never been cast as a heavy before this. The musical score completes the whole presentation and offers the viewer a truly exciting viewing experience. This movie is one that I visit at least once a year.
