This is a very entertaining spaghetti western, although it suffers a little from a series of unexpected shifts in tone.  It starts as a straightforward revenge movie, takes a melodramatic turn halfway, and almost ends like a Zapata western. Some people involved in the production (Barboni, Rosetti and Bolognini) had previously been involved in Corbucci’s '''Django''', and the film was called ''Django 2'' in some countries, even though Neo’s character is called Burt Sullivan. It is often described as a more Hollywood orientated spaghetti, but borrows only little from the more traditional US westerns. Apart from the soppy theme song and a few sentimental scenes, it unmistakably bears the spaghetti trademark: it is sadistically violent and characterized by many of the mannerisms the Italian western is identified with. - [[User:Scherpschutter|Scherpschutter]]
