An action-packed slog

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

This film begins with a train carrying a dignitary to a small town in the wilderness. However, once it pulls into the station it comes to a sudden halt and it's then that the residents of the town realize that all but one man on the train have been shot and killed. It is then disclosed that a man by the name of "Bill San Antonio" (Frank Wolff) was behind the train robbery and an insurance agent by the name of "Hutch " (Bud Spencer) wants to recover the stolen money. It's at this point that he meets up with a stranger named "Cat" (Terence Hill) and asks him if he will help him out. But Cat has a long standing beef with Bill and wants to settle the score with him all by himself. Even so, Hutch is not dissuaded so easily and subsequently follows Cat in the belief that he will lead him straight to Bill and the stolen gold. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a decent "Spaghetti Western" with the added benefit of Terence Hill and Bud Spencer performing together for the very first time. It is followed by the sequel "Ace High".

I always love Hill-Spencer's movies since 1976 when l'd watched the first one,since then every movie from both l watched in fullness...on "Dio perdona...lo no!" is an unusual situation between the star in this case they are complete antagonists,Hill is a gambler who was trapped by the chief band's robbers and Spencer work to insurance company where he has to recover the US$ 300.000 in gold that was stolen on a train robbery...this movie is more serious from the couple...the result is good...the partner was so long is cinema's history...sadly Bud Spencer let us forever!!!

Saturday morning and time for a western - a spaghetti western with Terence Hill and Bud Spencer, who have appeared together a couple of dozen times.Hill can be found in some of the most popular movies today, like Wanted and Get Smart. He has been in many films under the name Mario Girotti; this is only the second film where he used his present name. It is the first film where Bud Spencer, previously Carlo Pedersoli, appears under that name.Lots of shoot-em-up action. Really not bad for a PG-1 western. Would have expected more from something that came from Italy.

I've never really appreciated the whole Terence Hill and Bud Spencer phenomenon the way that some people apparently do. I don't think they are any better as a duo than any other two random actors that could have been thrown together at that time, and as far as comedy goes, let's just say they are no Laurel and Hardy. I see no good reason for them ever having been teamed up for more than just one film. In fact, I think they've done better work when they haven't been together, especially in the case of Hill.One saving grace for this film is that it is not one of their irritating attempts at comedy. It is a serious story with bloody violence, double-crosses, revenge, and gold. And it's told in good spaghetti western fashion. This film keeps the viewer intrigued from beginning to end, and it is accompanied by an interesting music score from Angel Oliver Pina.The highlight of this movie is the performance of Frank Wolff, as Bill San Antonio. Wolff has appeared in a lot of spaghetti westerns playing all sorts of characters, and is one of the finest supporting actors of the genre. He really outdoes himself in this movie as the cunning, wisecracking, sadistic, backstabbing bandit who fakes his own death to make it easier for him to continue his crimes. San Antonio is one of those funny, over-the-top characters that make these movies so much fun to watch. Frank Wolff is so great in this role that he steals the show completely, and makes this movie way more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise.Overall, this is a pretty decent spaghetti western that is worth watching for fans of the genre.
