Matarei um por um... na Hora Certa

The one with lansing and wayne, from 1966. It looks like this one has been remade several times. When bad people do bad things on the frontier, bounty hunters are hot on the trail. Two bounties meet up, talion and wallace, and work together... sort of. They are frenemies, as they both want the reward for bringing in the bad guys. But when they start have medical issues, they will have to come to some agreement to collect that bounty! Can they stay friends long enough, and stay on the trail long enough to ever collect the payment? Keep an eye out for slim pickens! He's probably best known from doctor strangelove, or blazing saddles. And two of ron howard's family members are in here. It's pretty good. Beautiful scenery of alabama hills and owens valley, back in the day. Directed by michael moore. He started as an actor in the silents.

The film packs violence , continuous shootouts , high body-count , and it's fast moving and quite entertaining. The movie gets the ordinary Western issues, such as avenger antiheroes , violent facing off and exaggerated baddies. Dealing with a former bounty hunter called Talion (Robert Lansing) is away from his farm with many enemies who still want him dead. Three wanted men, Ike Slant (Slim Pickens) and the Beetson brothers (Henry Wills, Jerry Gatlin), burn Talion's farm after killing his wife and son. As Talion returns to see his house ablaze and his family dead. He then sets-out to track the bad guys to kill them. On the way Talion teams up with a younger one, Benny Wallace (Patrick Wayne), who also is tracking the Slant gang. One man's eyes ...another man's hands ...between them they held the strangest gun in the west!. The Ultimate Revenge. Between them they held the strangest gun in the west!

There is plenty of action in the movie with quick scenes, guaranteeings gun-play, Western action, thrills and bloody spectacle and stunts every few minutes . It's an exciting western with breathtaking showdown between the starring: Robert Lansing, Patrick Wayne against their enemies: Slim Pickens, Strother Martin, Jerry Gatlin , among others . Robert Lansing is fine as a veteran bounty hunter who goes out to track down and kill the wanted gang leader who murdered his wife and little boy, while Patrick Wayne is nice as the young who seeks personal recognition in front of his legendary father who is none other than Wyatt Earp. Both of whom strike an enjoyable friendship, the development of this peculiar relationship is the best part of the film. The main novelty here is that the movie stars two crippled gunmen, on the one hand, one of them has a broken hand and on the other hand, the other is blind, but both complement each other's disabilities. Screenplay with interesting premise about a 'blind gunfighter', though its origin results to be a Japanese series starred by ¨Zaitochi¨, a blind swordsman from the 60s and being subsequently remade by Takeshi Kitano . This interesting theme about a blind gunslinger is also treated in other films such as ¨The Blindman¨ by Ferdinando Baldi with Tony Anthony and Ringo Starr , ¨Blind Justice¨ by Richard Spence with Armand Assante and ¨Minessota Clay¨ by Sergio Corbucci with Cameron Mitchell. An agreeable secondary casting with full of western familiar faces, such as: Slim Pickens, Gloria Talbott , Paul Fix, Jerry Gatlin . Special mention for Strother Martin in his ordinary role as a treacherous and cunning baddie, he is terrific, and bears a hysterical and mocking aspect , subsequently he would play similar characters . And brief appearances from Rance Howard and his son, Clint Howard (Ron Howard's brother) who later developed a long career as a supporting role in films of all kinds of genres.

Notably photographed by the Lucien Ballard, a prestigious cameraman who photographed most of Sam Peckinpah's films . The motion picture was well directed by Michael D. Moore. He was a child actor of the silent screen (under contract to Famous Players-Lasky), who later became a noted second unit director. His most important credits include Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid (1969), Patton (1970) and the first three Indiana Jones movies. He was also an assistant director and actor, known for The War of the Worlds (1953), Never Say Never Again (1983) and Willow (1988). An Eye for an Eye(1966) rating: 6.5/10. Decent and acceptable Western, worthwhile watching.

If you are very lucky you'll be able to catch this western as it showed up on YouTube and I could see it for the first time since it was in theaters. An Eye For Eye is a taught and lean with a fine cast of second string players. That's no reflection on their quality just their star power.

In the great MGM epic Ben-Hur one of the subplots involved Sam Jaffe who was the House of Hur steward spending many years in jail and being beaten so bad he lost the use of his legs. So he made a partnership of sorts with Ady Barber playing a big strong man whose tongue had been cut out. Each supplied the other with what he was missing. As Jaffe said in the film 'we make a considerable man'.

Both Robert Lansing and Patrick Wayne have to supply some needs for the other in An Eye For An Eye. During an encounter with gunslinger outlaw Slim Pickens, both being bounty hunters kill two of Slim's running buddies but are left injured. Lansing's gun hand is crippled and Wayne's blinded.

Probably in time they could recover, but do they have that kind of time because Pickens is out to get them. They devise an imaginary clock like gambit to use when they have to face Pickens inevitably.

The leads are fine, but the two you will remember are first Slim Pickens who started out in westerns and got first notice as a goofy sidekick to Rex Allen. Slim expanded his range considerably and while most probably remember him for Dr. Strangelove and Blazing Saddles, he could play it mean. Western fans will also recall him in both One Eyed Jacks and Rough Night In Jericho as a villain. But he was never nastier on the screen than in this film.

Strother Martin is also in this playing a nasty toad like character who'll sell anybody out for a few dollars. He's done that before most notably as one of Lee Marvin's sidekicks in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, but he brings that character to its lowest depths in An Eye For An Eye.

Not much in big budget production values, but western fans, this one's a must.

Robert Lansing (who looks like cross between Lee Majors and Steve McQueen) plays Talion, a retired bounty hunter who finds himself back in action hunting Slim Pickens, a sleazy outlaw who along with his two partners, murdered his family and burned down his home.

Teaming up with a cocky (wet behind the ears) fellow bounty hunter Patrick Wayne, the two find themselves badly injured in their first attempt to kill Pickens, leaving Wayne blinded and Talion unable to shoot.

Lansing and Pickens are good, while young Pat Wayne is okay, though a bit miscast. Character actor Paul Fix is quite dignified in a supporting role as the film's voice of reason and the always oily Strother Martin is great and gives the film's best performance as a money grubbing backstabber.

A thoroughly average production, An Eye For An Eye is helped considerably by excellent locations and some stunning outdoor photography, some of the best I've seen. Every scene looks like it belongs on a postcard!

This is a true unusual, surprising little western that you have to watch, enjoy - because you can only enjoy such a gem - and then talk about it to your movie buffs friends; don't keep it for you. Such a rare and terrific little movie, I repeat: so rare, deserves to be shared, discovered. The best example of what small productions can provide, because without any producers pressure. Yes, the best example, but every B movie is not the same. Beware. I saw this western in France, aired on a TV channel during the mid seventies and I never forgot it. Especially the second part. I guess Quentin Tarantino knows such a piece of jewel. How could it be else?
