VividSimon Simply Perfect
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
adrianswingler Whether you think this movie was atypical or not, I think, comes down to what you pay attention to. If you're the kind that gets into personal details, you'll likely think that, but if you're looking at the genre top down it's not that different than the standard fare. I felt it was a solid example of the genre and worth watching for genre-philes. It does well with non SW lovers as well, so, a solid entry I say. You could argue that it is very typical in the way it is atypical. The glasses are a good example. Seems an odd touch if you think of it in an absolute sense, but typical "routinely does the highly improbable" in SW terms.I liked it.
FightingWesterner After a violent bank robbery by fake Mexican Bandits, the crooked bank president/ringleader hires bounty hunter Richard Harrison to find the patsy blamed for the holdup. Catching up with him, Harrison learns the truth and schemes with the real gang of banditos to get his hands on the loot.Cleanshaven, with spectacles, neat hair, and a black overcoat that conceals his size, Harrison looks a lot different than you're used to seeing in various spaghetti westerns and muscle-man movies. His character is a bit colder as well.Though somewhat typical, there's a high level of torture and double- crossing going on. It might not be memorable, but it's watchable and has a few surprises going for it.Watch out for Harrison's glasses case, which unrolls to find about six pairs. I imagine his line of work can be pretty hard on your face!
morrison-dylan-fan Whilst trying to decide on which Spaghetti Western I should watch,I found that I was having great trouble tracking down any info for an Italian Crime looking film called One After Another.Taking a closer look and more detailed search at the cast members listed on the DVD case,I was surprised to find out that the "Italian Crime" movie I had been searching about was actually a Spaghetti Western which had become some what buried in recent years,thanks to its main alt English title The Day After being a similar title to Roland Emmerich's 2004 Disaster movie The Day After Tomorrow.With having found myself getting a good bit of luck in finding out about the movie,I decided that it time to take a look at the movie,the day after tomorrow.The plot:Turning up after having found out a few days ago that the towns bank has been robbed, glasses wearing bounty hunter Stan Ross enters the a near by saloon,and quickly shows the tough locals that even if they are able to take his sight away from him,he still has enough cunning in his fighting skills to knock them all to the ground.Impressed by Stan's no nonsense approach,mayor and bank manager of the town (who also has total control over what goes on in the town) Jefferson accepts Ross's request for money if he is able to capture one of the Mexican bandits from the recent robbery,dead or alive.Careful give a silent and stern exterior appearance instead of a trigger happy one,Ross finds the Mexican bandits hiding in the mountain,and quickly ends up coming face to face with bandit leader Espartero.Allowing Espartero to give the shocking news that he and his gang had no connection at all to the robbery,and also that Espartero had been recently working closely with Jefferson,Stan begins to wonder if Jefferson has a much stronger grip on the city than he had ever expected.View on the film:Giving the movie a double-barrel shot of Film Noir,the screenplay by (deep breath!) Mariano de Lope,Carols Emilio Rodriguez,Giovanni Simonelli and director Nick Nostro wonderfully leaves all of the characters from having one single moral,with each of the characters,from the cheating banker to the lone bounty hunter and a salon Femme Fatale all after cold hard cash and revenge,and each being more than happy to shoot anyone in the back who tries to stop them getting their own way. Backed by an overly abrasive score from Berto Pisano, (although the title track by Fred Bongusto) director Nick Nostro shows a real flair for finding some well placed Black Comedy moments in this terrific Spaghetti Western,from a coffin maker who celebrates his payday whenever a dead body turns up in the town,to Stan Ross having an endless supply of glasses.Entering the film wearing glasses that would make the villain in a serial killer movie proud,Richard Harrison gives a strong,quiet,tough and mean performance,with Harrison brilliantly showing everyone he meets,that no matter how much they offer,the only thing that Stan Ross wants to see is for them all to fail,one after the other.
filmantrop Spaghetti westerns like this were made by the dozen in the sixties. Where only a few made it to become commonly known and recognized as great pictures, flicks like this one are more or less forgotten or little known today. The plot of this movie is more or less like Yojimbo (A fistful of Dollars). A lone man rides into town where the bank has been robbed for a large amount of gold. He joins up with two gangs in turn, and gets beaten up by both. Our man, Stan, is an unlikely hero in that he wears glasses. These are, of course, broken several times. Knowing this will happen, Stan keeps a handy folder filled with spares attached to the inside of his jacket. Quite funny, in fact. Not much else to say about the movie besides that both colors and the photography are quite nice.
