I'm having a hard time figuring out some of the recent negative posts up here regarding this film. What's not to like? This is high- powered hyper-stylized spag western that grabs you from the first scene and barely lets up for all of it's 90 minutes. I wouldn't say this is better than Leone (I don't think any of the other posts did either) but this is a damn entertaining film with style and attitude to spare.

If you like highly violent, stylized over the top films like HARD BOILED or Tarantino's stuff this film is for you. Also hats off to Blue Underground for putting together a great DVD package.

Also was it just me, or did one of the broken down whores have a 5 o'clock shadow? I noticed in the trailer her name was Jose - anyone want to fill me in on that?
