An unofficial remake of The Comancheros, this well-cast western proves you don't always have to reinvent the wheel. The film is set during the Restoration, a few years after the Civil War, when profiteers made big bucks by supplying Indians with guns. Here Captain Haven [Stuart Whitman], with the help of Sergeant Franklyn [Jim Brown], tries to stop a former Rebel colonel [Warner Anderson] from delivering stolen weapons to a Native American tribe. They enlist the help of Major James Lassiter [Richard Boone], whose tactical insights often clash with those of his superior.
Smooth western with some well executed action sequences, especially the impressive finale. Boone is perfect and his character contrasts effectively with the somewhat timid Whitman and the taciturn but imposing Brown (in his film debut). Not a masterpiece, but a well-filmed and entertaining western.
