This is a decent western but is no comparison to the original 1960 film. I particularly like a western with stirring theme music but in this area this film was so unlike the original. It was so predictable at times. I knew that the good Indian would kill the bad one or that the girl would kill the final living bad man in the church scene near the end. The death toll in this big budget movie would have been similar to the battle of the Little Big Horn. The film needed a John Wayne, James Stewart, Steve McQueen or Glenn Ford to give us characters that we can identify with. Nevertheless, for big fans of 50's westerns like myself, it's fairly decent for a western in the modern era.
