James Stewart and Dean Martin are atypically cast as outlaws in Bandolero! The film begins as Dee Bishop (Martin) and his gang are about to be hanged. The Scripture-spouting executioner turns out to be Dee's brother Mace (Stewart), who helps the desperadoes escape. They are pursued by a sheriff… More James Stewart and Dean Martin are atypically cast as outlaws in Bandolero! The film begins as Dee Bishop (Martin) and his gang are about to be hanged. The Scripture-spouting executioner turns out to be Dee's brother Mace (Stewart), who helps the desperadoes escape. They are pursued by a sheriff (George Kennedy), whose lady friend (Raquel Welch) has the hots for Dee. The brothers try to go straight, but before they can make up their mind they find themselves surrounded by Mexican bandidos and are forced to team up with the sheriff to fight them off. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Ryan Cracknell, Apollo Guide
Although the transfer is for the most part solid, there are some murky spots where the colours don't look as clean as they should.
-
Ryan Cracknell, Apollo Guide
Buoyed by a strong cast and carried by an interesting mix of genre sensibilities, it's a film that may not have much lasting value but is fun nonetheless.
-
Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central
One of those movies you can't remember if you've seen until well into its first hour.
-
Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
An unpretentious and spirited, but uneven Western.
