Viewing Notes

Decent spaghetti western with a couple of good subplots but lacking that extra oomph to make it a classic. Feels like everything is rushed esp. in the climax, which I was hoping would’ve been more clever than the standard showdown. Also wish Eastman was given a little more to do other than look cool.
