Critic Reviews
There's something to be said for this kind of professionalism: the moviemakers know how to provide excitement and they work us over.
Brooks could certainly write a line and direct action, but his taut and disillusioned yarn of American mercenaries intruding into the Mexican revolution to "rescue" Cardinale had only a couple of years in critical favour before it was comprehensively eclipsed by Peckinpah's ostensibly similar The Wild Bunch.

Written and directed by Richard Brooks, the picture is more style than content, but what style.
Exciting, beautifully shot '60s political western. [10 Apr 1998, p.M]
