Review of Keoma

Keoma (1976)
6/10
Nothing you haven't seen before.

Franco Nero essentially reprises his role from "Django", playing yet again a shaggy loner who is the fastest gun in the West and almost singlehandedly fights and destroys an entire gang of crooks. However, what was fairly fresh in 1966, is no longer fresh in 1976. The movie is too self-conscious about its own style, too derivative. You can only milk the "strong man of few words" cow so many times. It does have some interesting, unusual flashbacks, though, and beautiful widescreen cinematography. (**)
