Goofy , entertaining and amusing tongue-in-cheek spaghetti Western . This exciting picture contains Western noisy action , gun-play , fun situations and bits of humor . The film gets the comic remarks from Western parody united the features of typical Spaghetti . Offbeat Western comedy with a hero named ¨Alleluja¨ who looks partially ¨Sartana¨ . It is a bemusing SW with lots of mayhem , crossfire and nutty incidents ; however , being slightly mediocre . This time the new hero is named ¨Alelujah¨ (George Hilton) who carries a ¨surprising machine gun¨ which displays unexpected and magic resources . He is a elegant gunman and his companion is Gen. Emiliano Ramirez (Roberto Camardiel) , both of whom join forces along with a suspicious nun (Agata Fiory) to take a bag full of valuable jewels through gang-infested lands . They face off a powerful banker (Andrea Bosic) and his hoodlums as Fortune (Paolo Gozlino) . It stars ¨Alleluja/George Hilton¨ who unites a mysterious , fake sister and a Cossack Duke (Charles Southwood) . The resourceful hero , freelance gunman , named ¨Alleluja¨ appears to chase nasty gunfighters , as well as to get a gold stash . The confrontation will be inevitable between the mean cutthroats , scoundrels , villainous gunslingers and , of course , ¨Alleluja¨ . As 'Trinity' is the Game...'Hallelujah is his Name!
Silly slapstick euro-western, Terence Hill-Bud Spencer style . Amusingly starred by George Hilton , it is plenty of action , shootouts , tongue-firmly in cheek , double-crosses , fights with lots of punches , kick-ass , bounds , leaps , twists and loads of shots . The movie takes parts from Enzo Barboni movies such as ¨Trinity is my name¨ and ¨Trinity is still my name¨ . The picture is acceptable and amusing which doesn't say a lot because it has some cheap and ridiculous moments , too . This is a regular Faglioli-Spaghetti Western in Trinity and Bambino style and that's why there is a cult to idiocy surrealism , silliness , dirtiness with an appropriately goofy tone , customary issue in this sub-genre . The violence isn't crude but suits the light-weight comedy fun and silly slapstick like the Trinity series . It certainly has an enthusiastic cast , plenty of slapstick , some very impressive gymnastics , especially in the massive fight sequences ,especially set in the Chinese laundry and Monastery . The film is filled with action , twists , fun , brawls , shootouts , surprise-filled entertainment and with a couple of frankly bemusement moments . It does eventually outstay its welcome , and there are a surprising amount of fights and laughter . The movie is running out of ideas a bit ; nevertheless , it is still good enough to be fun . ¨Alelujah¨ is a two-fisted and tough gunfighter with technical weaponry and a lot of tricks similarly to previous Sabata , here he is attempting t to take down European emperor Maximilian by seizing a purse of precious jewels intended to be used for the purchase of weapons . ¨Alelujah¨ is another hero of second class in the S.W. genre as Sabata and Sartana . The Uruguay-born George Hilton was a Spaghetti first-star such as ¨ Sartana no perdone¨ , ¨Go kill and come back¨ , ¨Kitosch¨ , ¨They call me Alleluja¨ , ¨Ruthless four¨ , ¨Alleluja for Django¨ , and also played successful Giallo as ¨The strange vice of Mrs Wardh¨ , ¨The scorpion's tale¨, ¨All colors of the dark¨ , ¨My deal Killer¨ . He teams up , as co-protagonist , with the Spanish Roberto Camardiel , he is one , (along with Tito Garcia , Chris Huerta , Pedro Sánchez, and the great Fernando Sancho) of the ordinary support characters who accompanied to starring in the multiple Spaghetti/Paella Westerns of the 60s and 70s . The movie gets the usual Italian Western issues , such as greedy antiheroes , violent facing off , quick zooms , exaggerated baddies , among them . It appears ordinary secondary actors who are habitual in Italian Western and Peplum genre , such as : Andrea Bosic , Paolo Gozlino , Franco Pesce , Fortunato Arena , Goffredo Unger and Federico Boido or Rick Boyd and Roberto Camardiel as Mexican general fighting for the revolution against European domination.
This bewildering picture was middlingly directed by Giuliano Carmineo or Anthony Scott , who directed Westerns with Spaghetti-hero named Sartana , usually played by Gianni Garco and George Hilton . Giuliano Carmineo , alias Anthony Ascott, directed various Sartana with George Hilton who replaces Gianni Garco , as Hilton played more natural and roguish than Garco who was cold and peculiar . Giuliano Carmineo realized several Spaghettis , most of them featuring mainly the same cast again , such as "Di Tresette Ce N'è Uno, Tutti Gli Altri son Nessuno" ,Uomo Avvisato Mezzo Ammazzato... Parola Di Spirito Santo¨ (original title) or "His Name Was Holy Ghost", this is probably the best among the bunch of spaghetti western comedies that George Hilton was starring in and "Lo Chiamavano Tresette... Giocava Sempre Col Morto" that actually was the last time George Hilton/Chris Huerta and Carnimeo worked on such a western comedy together , ¨The moment to kill¨, ¨Find a place to die¨ , ¨They call him Cemetery¨ , ¨They call me Hallaluya¨ , and the Sartana movies : "Have a Good Funeral, My Friend, Sartana Will Pay" , ¨Sartana the gravedigger'(69) ,"Sartana's Coming, Get Your Coffins Ready" , ¨Light the fuse Sartana is coming¨(1971) , among others . Giuliano also directed other kinds of genres , as Sci-Fi : ¨Exterminators of the year 3000¨, ¨Computron¨, Giallo : ¨The case of the bloody iris¨ , Crime thriller : ¨Secrets of a Call Girl¨ , Buddy movie films : ¨Convoy Buddies" or "Kid Stuff" , "The Diamond Peddlers" . This one is clearly inferior to his entries in Sartana series . Rating : 5.5/10 . Average but amusing .
