Review by jonathan_pickett

Clint doesn't cover himself with glory in this acting/director role. Not a patch on the spaghetti westerns he starred in under Sergio Leone and tries in vain to emulate here.

Revenge westerns have been done better before and after this ugly, nasty and tawdry western. The tone is set early on when Eastwood's character rapes a woman who stupidly attempts to grab his attention. This isn't the only rape he commits but sadly the women are just in awe of him.

There is no-one to root for, the townspeople are weak willed, scaredy cats and by the end you won't be bothered if everyone is killed, Eastwood included!
