just finish watch this movie and be very satisfied . i have be watch a many spaghetti westerns a i can get my hand on and so far i have love every one that i have see . this film be no exception . basically it about a swedish arm dealer ( franco nero ) who come to negotiate the sale of some gun to a revolutionary . turn out that his payment be in a safe that only a professor xantos have the combination too . the problem be that the professor be in jail in america so the arm dealer and a bandit ( tomas milian ) set out to break him loose but one of the swede former partner ( palance ) have get other plan . this movie doesn not quite reach the level of greatness achieve by once upon a time in the west and the great silence or the good the bad and the ugly but it still a great western . i would rate it along side the big gundown and high than the like of django and death ride a horse or if you live shoot . the movie use humor to great effect and sometimes come off a an early example of a buddy comedy while the two lead have great chemistry . milian whom you can not help but like in any movie he in . this movie also have the best action scene of any spagstern i have see so far . the final shootout rank a one of my all time favorite ( i just wish tomas milian have get more to do ) . the performance be all fantastic . franco nero and who fail to impress me in django and be great a the smug and badass swede . milian be wonderful a usual and jack palance play a drug up off his rocker bird love lunatic with a wooden hand a only he could . of course you can not go without mention morricones score which be and of course and fantastic . not as great a his work with leone but even an average score by morricone be good than 90 % of the other stuff out there . check this flick out . it funny and entertaining and you get to see nero go nuts with a big as machine gun .
