That was Burt Lancaster's assessment of the situation as he and Lee Marvin, Woody Strode, and Robert Ryan were almost at their destination.
These four soldiers of fortune have taken a job to bring back the kidnapped wife of Ralph Bellamy. And when that wife is Claudia Cardinale, well that certainly is understandable.
Who's taken her is Mexican revolutionary Jack Palance. He wants a one hundred thousand dollars from Ralph Bellamy. That will buy a lot of guns and ammunition and keep that revolution going.
This is pre World War I Mexico and revolution is a cottage industry in that poor country in those years.
One thing about Bellamy, he does hire the best. Let's just say that Palance is definitely going to have to replace a lot of his hardware after our intrepid heroes get done.
But there is a big joker in this card deck of a movie. For that you will have to watch it.
Nice performances by all concerned and Richard Brooks as director keeps the action going.
And this film is worthwhile just to see Lee Marvin give that last line to an epithet thrown at him.
