Like Django and Sartana or even James Bond, where the role is not owned by a single actor, this time it's Yul Brynner opting the Sabata role after Lee Van Cleef. Co-written and directed by Gianfranco Parolini that takes place during the Mexican revolution, that has ruthless Colonel Skimmel (Gérard Herter) along with his major, Metternich (Antonio Gradoli) residing for the intention of transporting it's gold out of Mexico. Meanwhile, a leader of his small unit, Escudo (Ignazio Spalla) along with his two trusted helpers of Septiembre (Sal Borgese) and Gitano (Joseph Persaud)) are wanting to retrieve the gold to fund the Mexican cause. Both them and Sabata -a soldier of fortune are going to come together to steal the gold along with the help of self serving, gambler/ painter Ballantine (Dean Reed).

Like the other Spaghetti Western movies, you are watching it for the nuances that is not often shown on other American westerns like the gun Sabata uses here, is not unlike any other gun shown before. And the mute dropping steelie marbles on his shoe and manages to hit people with accuracy and the deadly flamenco tap dance by Escudo's command.
