    Good if a bit overlong western with Steve, oozing charisma, acquitting himself well as he changes from callow youth to hardened gunslinger. A great supporting cast helps immeasurably with Suzanne Pleshette standing out bringing a gruff sexy charm to her too few scenes.

    Very well produced, excellent cinematography and score. It's a good story but way overlong. The period detail is only fair. It wasn't always authentic looking. The performances are fine. Great use of location filming.

    decent revenge western. nothing all too memorable.

    Near masterpiece. Surely an overlooked classic. Ultimate revenge flick! Brian Keith in rare form; Karl Malden as a guy; Marty Landau in there, too. Marvelous.

    Any Steve McQueen movie is good, as he was such a great actor.

    I knew that Joesph E. Levine produced this film and was directed by Henry Hathaway. Steve McQueen at the peak of his career gives a impressive performance in a revenge-type Western that never gives up on the action and does McQueen deliver the goods! Also starring in this classic are Brian Keith,Suzanne Pleshette,Karl Malden,Strother Martin,L.Q, Jones and Martin Landau. Released by Paramount Pictures. Worth seeing in the widescreen(Panavision)format.
