Review by coltras35

A bandit with a price on his head, is seen this time blind for revenge. He thinks that the British have massacred his people, his family, his wife and child. But he is wrong. Only the little romantic daughter of his enemy, overflowing with pity for him, could open his eyes to the truth.

The story and situations are similar to Zarak, the previous Victor Mature Northwest frontier romp, and I must say this 1959 film starring Victor Nature, Anthony Newley and Anne Aubrey is much better - I found Zarak slow and dull in parts, whereas the Bandit of Zhobe isn't dull, has a niftier pace, gets straight to the meat of the matter rather than meandering, has some exciting action sequences, and Victor Mature is great in his role. The man can make anything watchable. Anne Aubrey is good as the major's daughter who is a pacifist and sympathises with Mature. The only thing is that it lacks nuance or a sharper script to give it an edge over the routine story. Possibly more mystery/investigation into the plot of the villain (Walter Gottell) would have been good, but as it is an entertaining film.
