A bunch of outlaws wreak mayhem in the American West with the law closely nipping at their heels. William Holden and Ernest Borgnine are the grizzled veterans who lead this pack into trouble and a blaze of glory. Gunshots, dirt, the desert, the Spanish language, saucy Mexican wenches and a lot of blood are to be had in this late Western. Slow-going and nothing essential, the film takes advantage of the freedom of the times with expletives and nudity coming through. As an artifact of an old film tradition you could do worse.
