Summary: NOT MUCH HAPPENING . . .
Comment:
Not much happening in this psuedo, comedy western from 1970. How Frank got talked into this farce would make good coversation over a drink or two. If he was trying to follow up for SERGEANTS THREE, or 4 FOR TEXAS, he missed the bullseye.
However, if you have free time of a few hours to spare, and if like me have never seen this film before, them you might want to watch it. I remember when they were filming it from some outtakes shown back then, but had never seen this one in theatres or on cable. Thanks to Encore Westerns I have finally been able to view the film, albeit 38 years later with most actors in the film now dead and buried.
I read many westerns and enjoy western movies so I don't find this movie as objectionable as some may. I also enjoy the work of many of the actors in the film, so overall I give it a medium rating of 3 stars. At certain points in the film I did laugh aloud, and while it will never become my favorite film, it is worth viewing. Certainly Frank left us with some much better films, but I'll bet ole blue eyes had a 'gas' making this 'ring a ding, ding', one.
Semper Fi.

Summary: Under-rated comedy full of inuendo
Comment: This movie was made as a comedic sexual comedy at a time when such things were really pretty tame by todays standards. The script is mediocre but the cast is great. The is a wild western that is safe for most audiences, but not quite family friendly due to the sexual inuendo. It Sells for a pretty price even used due to rarity.

Summary: Worth a look....
Comment: Although there is not a lot going for Sinatra in this western spoof, Jack Elam makes it worth a look. Elam was one of the all-time great character actors that can make even the worst spoof funny....case in point, Dirty Dingus Magee.

Summary: Unbelievably Awful
Comment: Sinatra and Kennedy should have had their hairpieces examined in accepting one of the unfunniest western comedies of all-time. No chemistry exists between the two, all the women in this film are oversexed, and the Native Americans should picket MGM/UA for the treatment they receive here. Get past the constant cursing and sexual innuendo, and you have a ninety minute bore. The hyperactively cute musical score will make you search for your revolver to put this video out of your misery. Awful.
