Miserable attempt to create good spaghetti western
2 May 2022
I love old spaghetti westerns, and not only with the legendary Clint Eastwood, but also with a fine Italian actor Terence Hill. To those who gave this miserable attempt for a western high grades I'd suggest to watch these classic spaghetti westerns to see how it should be done.

Anyway, when I learned that a new spaghetti western is being made I was very anxious to watch it, having high expectation. From the very beginning I realized that it was supposed to be a tribute to the Clint's westerns: low voice, low sitting hat, only the sound from a musical watch was missing. In short, the beginning was good. And it could be a good western: actors were talented and attractive, camerawork nice, nice nature views. Alas, the script was terrible. Consisting of separate pieces that lead to nowhere. There was not much logic in there, too. I was patiently watching this to the last episode, hoping for some nice climactic ending. It did not happen, but ending it suddenly.

There was a lot of violence and even some witchcraft. Why in the world they needed to insert witchcraft in the western? Honestly, I fail to comprehend how people can invest so much money in good actors and camerawork without noticing that the script really sucks? Oh, well. I'm sure some people will like it and even give me angry negative votes. I don't mind.
