Nobody brought their A game to this disappointing western from Clint Eastwood and John Sturges. Clint's the tough guy who's been hired to kill a Mexican bandit in a land rights swindle.
The film has a decent action scene towards the end but that's about it. Sturges occasionally shows his ability to frame individuals against scenic vistas and even in a tired film like this, he does stage some of the action scenes fairly well.
Elmore Leonard wrote the boring script but it doesn't help that everyone seems to be mumbling throughout the picture. It's hard to tell what is going on.
Running time 88 minutes.
