Sorry, this movie sucks

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Mehdi Hoffman
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This is one movie, it pays to revisit OUT of the context of its time. I think we need to stop comparing it to Jaws or King Kong. I think the relationship between the leads is much more important, and I liked the character development devoid of many Bronson films. I liked the fact that creature special effects were "in the camera", animatronic rather than CGI. To be frank, CGI had NOT risen to the level of creature creations--stop motion, which was not used, was mainstay until the early '90's, even in Star Wars sequels five years later. And the mood music? The music is extraordinarily moody--this is a monaural track, yet it filled the military theater in Frankfurt Germany where I served back in '77 and paid my 50 cents to see it. Maybe the mood of the movie is too dark. Maybe it's too cold, it left me shivering. Maybe we're not supposed to think about characterization and WB makes you think about the relationships between the characters, and that's not what Bronson movies were supposed to be about. Maybe we don't like a little hard work.Give this one a chance. I think it is top notch.So hang up your prejudices and sit through it as if you never saw Bronson, or Will Sampson, or Jack Ward or Clint Walker in any previous role, because they're all outside the box in this one and they pull it off in my humble estimation.And that makes it one of my all time favorites.

A richly shot, old fashion western, a far cry from a lot of Charlie's avenging cop flicks, ala Golan Globus. Surprisingly this exciting, and well shot period adventure is directed by J Lee Thompson, a favorite with Charles. In this he forms an alliance with a bitter enemy, Wild Bill Hickok, in taking down this magnificent beast, the White Buffalo, who's only appeared in Charlie's dreams. In one breathtaking sequence we see this ranting beast charge through a village, no blood spared either. This is a great vehicle for Charles, rather than the norm of vengeance movies, that become so stereotypical of this acting great, we become thankful of this change, but still remains is this never changing tough guy personal, that made this actor a legend. The surroundings in which this solid actioner piece is shot, I loved. It very much reminded me, as if being on the same set of Daniel Boone. I loved seeing Charlie pitted up against this beast, and the unlikely, if inevitable friendship formed between these two once bitter enemies. After all, isn't there enough hate in the world.

What haunts the famous gunslinger of the West? A Native American who attacked the settlers? A group of Calvary soldiers who were fighting against the tribes? Well, it's none of them! The thing that haunts Wild Bill Hickok (Charles Bronson) is a white buffalo! Not only he was affected, Chief Crazy Horse (Will Sampson) has been too. When his daughter was killed by its stampede, he would give a mourning shout. For that, he was later reduced to the name, "Worm". This creature is far more elusive than Crazy Horse, himself. So Hickok goes by another name, James Otis. He does have one friend in the saloon, when Custer (Ed Lauter), and his Calvary confronted Hickok. But Hickok, took them out. After meeting Charlie Zane(Jack Warden), they go on the quest to find gold claims. Rather than finding the claims, they run afoul of Crazy Horse. Since they are enemies, they would bridge the gap between them to fulfill a quest: Hunt the White Buffalo. The Lakotas did have rivals back then, other Indian tribes who would want to take out Crazy Horse. Then it came the ultimate showdown: Men vs. Beast. And the nightmare was over for both. Of course, both of these enemies met a different fate later on. What did this animal do to this man? It's supposed to be a pure creature, however, this one is anything but that! Great, but weird movie of the Old West. 3 out of 5 stars

love this movie one of my favorites. also the other guy that says you notice little things like with any movie that you did not notice before like for example when wild bill and one eye are in the bar one eye actually FARTS before he throws the mug. then the hot grease bum says make your move you glass eyed Gas bag. also i had question what the hell is a grease bum and what does he mean by hot Grease. not sure what else to say but i like the look and feel of the movie as well as the slang an all around classic that i will watch time and time again especially in the winter after i foreclose on his mortgage and hit the college you swag jab bellies. now the thunder bird is eating the sky. soon plenty of snow!!
