“What I liked about this film was an intriguing storyline, superb music by Ennio Morricone and Lee Van Cleef. The action scenes are almost on a par with Leoneu0026#39;s films and Van Cleef is top-notch (more convincing as a u0026#39;good guyu0026#39;).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAfter watching my tape of this film, I found out that it was a (badly-cut-by-Columbia) 84 min version. This would explain some confusing sections of the dialogue/narrative.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m told that the fuller versions (there is one of 114 min) are superior. Letu0026#39;s hope this film gets a decent treatment on DVD (hello Sony-Columbia) – it certainly deserves it more than most.”
