Although "Buffalo Bill, Hero Of The West" is a western made by European filmmakers, it isn't quite like what you usually associate with spaghetti westerns. The movie plays out like it was made by American filmmakers, from the standard western plot right down to the musical score. That doesn't mean that spaghetti western fans won't find anything to enjoy here. For starters, this movie clearly had a budget; there are dozens of extras, as well as a complete replica of an army fort built. Also, the action sequences, from hand-to-hand combat to gun battles, are pretty well done. However, the story, despite the presence of the colorful wild west figure Buffalo Bill, is often kind of flat and predictable. Still, if you are a spaghetti western fan, the movie has enough interesting elements to make it worth a look. However, if you do decide to watch it, seek out a copy that presents the movie in its true widescreen format - the pan and scan editions frequently cut off speaking characters photographed to the far left and right.

Average Pasta Western plenty of shots , go riding , assaults , up and downs pace , thrills and passable direction . However , it results to be a very mediocre Spaghetti-Schnizel Western mostly produced by Italy and German secondary participation ; it doesn't follow the Sergio Leone wake and being proceeded in American style . Being emotionally right on the mark and there's precious action . The film packs shootouts , noisy action , high body-count and overwhelming Indian attacks . It's a thrilling western with spectacular outdoors and breathtaking confrontation among badly-dressed Indians and soldiers . Acceptable action sequences with rousing Indian attacks against a Yankee fort and little realistic shootouts . The picture has a decent Mise-En-scene with bustling battles , so-so production design , spectacular outdoors and moving score by Carlo Rustichelli . Lousy cinematography filmed by Massimo Dallamano who also directed Westerns , being necessary a right remastering ; filmed on locations in Colmenar Viejo , La Pedriza, Manzanares el Real (Madrid) , as usual , and El Lacio , Rome , Italy . The motion picture was middlingly directed by Mario Costa , under pseudonym , J. W. Fordson . He was a craftsman who directed several adventure movies "Cavalier in Devil's Castle" , "Conqueror of Corinth" , ¨The son of the sheikh ¨, ¨The black pirate¨ ,"Gladiator of Rome" , "Karim, the Sheikh's Son" , "The Queen of the Pirates" , ¨The kings of France¨ and Westerns as ¨La Belba¨ and "Buffalo Bill, Hero of the West" ; many of them starred by Gordon Scott .
Other films about ¨Buffalo Bill¨ are the followings : ¨Battling with Buffalo Bill¨ (1931) by Ray Taylor with Tom Tyler , ¨The Plainsman¨ (1936) by Cecil B. De Mille with Gary Cooper , James Ellison , Jean Arthur , and the best ¨Buffalo Bill¨ by William A. Wellman with Joel McCrea , Thomas Mitchell , Mauren O'Hara and Anthony Quinn as Yellow Hand . Furthermore , ¨Buffalo Bill in Tomahawk Territory¨ by Bernard Ray with Clayton Moore , Chief Thundercloud ; ¨Buffalo Bill rides again ¨ (1947) by Bernard Ray with Richard Arlen , "Seven Hours of Gunfire" (65) by Joaquin Romero Marchent with Rik Van Nutter as Buffalo Bill Cody , Adrian Hoven as Wild Bill Hickok and Gloria Milland as Calamity Jane and the historical pastiche as well as perennial underrated ¨Buffalo Bill and the Indians¨ (76) by Robert Altman with Paul Newman who appears as a charlatan and shameless exemplar of encroaching imperialism .

Muscleman Gordon Scott swaps his loincloth/tunic for a buckskin fringe jacket, jeans and a six gun in this entertaining euro western. It classed as a spaghetti western, but it eschews the gritty and anti-hero elements of that ilk. This western is a traditional shoot-em up a la John wayne-style with colourful locations, and there's plenty of intense action. Every western lexicon is covered here: barroom brawls, saloon shoot em ups, and exciting staged Indian fort attack. There's a naive charm about it with a lot of colour and energy.
A note about Catherine Ribeiro (cast as "Moonbeam" );her film debut was Godard' s "Les Carabiniers" ;in the mid-sixties,she wound up in this spaghetti western : her acting is quite disastrous, a wig is not enough to make us believe she's an Indian ;Primarily a Chanteuse ,she became a leftist well-respected Latin progressive rock singer,in the seventies ,along with her group "Alpes" ;She was then one of our best French artists - her peak is arguably her 1972 album ,"Paix",which contains her most memorable track " Un Jour La Mort" .
The hero is called "Buffalo Bill ",but they could have chosen Davy Crockett or Hopalong Cassidy or any legendary wild west character;after Tarzan and the sword and sandals flicks,and before becoming ,in the wake of James Bond ,a secret agent ,Gordon Scott (essentially remembered for his part opposite Steve Reeves,in an estimable "Romolo E Remo")was cast as the fearless horseman ,on the right side of the law ;here he is friend with the Indians (particularly Moonbeam and her father "Wise Fox" ),the good ones that is :some of them buy weapons from a white villain.(Buffalo Bill supported the native American rights )
The movie borrows a little from many American movies :of course ,there's a fort with a bossy colonel who does not want his daughter to marry a nice captain -because marrying a military man would make her a widow too soon;a final fight between Bill and the nasty Indian is the Pièce De Résistance of a harmless entertaining western,with a rather nice cinematography and a good sense of space which makes up (a little) for the triteness of the plot.

When the sword and sandal films in the Roman Cinecitta were threatening to go out of fashion, genre star Gordon SCOTT (1927-2007), who had been married to the Hitchcock star Vera MILES in Hollywood, switched to the emerging wave of Westerns .
His performance as Buffalo Bill is based on his life story, but is overall too convoluted and lengthy.
The only interesting thing is that: with Ingeborg SCHÖNER (*1935), Jan HENDRIKS (1928-1991) and Hans von BORSODY (1929-2013) there are also three film stars from the German-speaking film industry of those years.
You can take a look, but you don't have to!
