The Big Gundown
This actually wasn’t that bad. Lee Van Cleef as a bounty hunter chasing down a Mexican child murderer/rapist.
What should have been a routine bounty proves anything but as Cuchillo, the wanted murderer, continues to out smart Van Cleef.
So we get a drawn out cat and mouse game until finally he catches his quarry. He actually catches him often. But someone always interferes.
The music is decent, as expected of Morricone, and Van Cleef is steady. But there’s something missing here. *
It didn’t help that the language constantly flipped back and forth in mid conversation.
Still, there’s an ok film here. Just needs a proper version.
