I just watched this one and was surprised to see that it didnāt have its own thread.
Bud Spencer plays a crook who hides in a small town disguised as a fake doctor.
The town is terrorised by a gang who wants to run the inhabitants out of town because there is gold hidden underneath the city.
And thatās basically the plot there is no more than that to it, but it works out pretty well I must say.
Its one of the better comedy westerns IMO.

I like the one, although I havenāt seen it for quite a whileā¦
Lupo is a big one of the genre, and he manages to create a kind of worthy farewell to the SW.
We can see the settings for a last time, as well as some of our heroes (Riccardo Pizzuti, Tom Felleghy).
And as Bill said, this great music.
It is a well made one, no cheap rip off.
Light hearted romp with the huge Bud Spencer who generally saves the day, aswell as finding time to eat everything he can get his hands on. Probably some of my favourite Bud eating moments in this one, in particular the scene in the chinese place. Very jolly score by Morricone. Viewed some heavy style films recently, so this was a welcome change of pace.
didnāt like it much (3/10), even sold my dvd, but itās 100 times better than āBotte di Nataleā.
the high-time for italos were the good olā days (1964-1971) !
Watched this for the first time today as wanted something light to watch while nursing a cold. Would be better if one of the females of the family would step up to the plate in the nursing department but thatās a whole other story.
Not a fan of comedy spaghettis by any chalk but apart from the embarrassing Indian sidekick (the Italians really seemed to love their racial stereotypes didnāt they?) this one wasnāt nearly as bad as I had feared. Harmless fun for the most part and enjoyed seeing Joe Bugner actually throw a few punches. More than he did during most of his boxing career.

A few days ago I found the VHS in a thrift store for ā¬ 0,55!
Watched it last night. I enjoyed the movie, especially the first part.
Good Morricone score and nice cinematography!
I was really surprised this movie has no review and receives little attention.
Maybe I will write a review some day.
Iāve added the link.
