    Sean Connery leads a party of European Toffs into indian terratory for a spot of hunting. Bridget Bardot looks fantastic as the lady who falls in love.

    Stylish western with loads of action

  • Wacky western

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By Gavin M from Glasgow, Scotland , 26 Apr 2006
    On first viewing of this film, you cannot help but ask the question; who on earth was the casting director? I rented this film due to the casting of Sean Connery, Brigitte Bardot and Honor Blackman in a WESTERN. Despite this there is something strangely appealing about this film. As I am not a fan of the western genre this seemed pretty good to me.

  • Western with a Difference

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By Michael Wheeler from East London , 06 Oct 2005
    Unusual to see Connery acting as a 'cowboy'. Takes a bit of getting used to, but he does a reasonable job of it. A different slant on the usual westerns, and quite entertaining.

  • Rich tourists in the west.

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer from Ireland. , 21 Jun 2005
    It is a film with all the basics of a better film. Some of the actors were capable of better performances. At times the situations demanded more anger or vehemence. Honor Blackman was excellent. The indians tell the rich tourists to get off their land. Rich tousists think 'That's my line!' Indians try to change their minds. Sean Connery helps some of the tourists to survive. It's good but should have been better.
