Was just looking into the differences between the âuncutâ and âEnglish versionâ and jesus, what an unnecessary complication. I really donât see why they didnât just only release the âuncutâ version with the commentary
Seems its just a difference of language in credits and a single shot of a prisoner in a wagon⌠and the credits arenât even English, theyâre French

Interesting film with lots of (maybe a bit too much) action. I liked it
At the same time, the film felt really random: Chuck Connors grinning 24/7 and Alberto DellâAcqua doing acrobatics (loved it ). It also felt like the only thing that happened in the film was that the group went somewhere, started a fight, escaped and then repeated it.
I know what you mean. I first saw this on satellite TV in a holiday apartment in Almeria, 2009. It was during my last Spanish trip, and I was staying at âRoquetas De MarââŚa beautiful seaside destination.
The film was a perfect end to a perfect day, visiting SW locations.
Yeah, thereâs lots of actions (never ending, at times), but the film is strangely compelling, and features knock-out performances from Chuck (Rifleman/Branded) Connors, and Frank Wolff.
However, add to this the superb (as always) Francesco De Masi scoreâŚand the film rises several notches above the norm.
Sure, not a knock out SWâŚbut certainly a knockabout oneâŚ
As much as the sequences become over-familiar, and repetitive, this SW grows on me also every time that I watch it.
Typical Castellari in that it 1) has very good cinematography / visuals with some interesting camera angles and locations, but 2) contained way too many fist fights. I probably made exactly the same comments wrt Johnny Hamlet.
As others have noted it is all action, with some good (but OTT) set pieces. However; the characters are all a little one dimensional. The balance of the film feels a little off as a result. Still it was an enjoyable watch but I suspect I might like it less on a rewatch.
