Trivia
Hal Needham was brought in to coordinate stunts. He planned to make the wagon fly across the canyon by attaching rockets to the bottom. When Jim Brown and Fred Williamson found out, they had Needham fired from the production. But not before finishing his short acting role in the film, losing the beginning duel against Lee Van Cleef.

Goofs
At the beginning of the climactic fist fight, Williamson decks Brown, but the Foley editor neglected to add the sound of a punch--the hit produces no sound at all.

Crazy credits
Although the film was shot in 1.85:1, the zero in the 20th Century-Fox logo has the tilt that was used for CinemaScope pictures.

7/10

With this cast, it can't miss (completely).

This predictable and formulaic Western will not blow you away with its brilliance, but it IS fun, carried along almost entirely by the strong presences of its top stars. Only Jim Kelly and his karate moves feel out of place. And it also must be mentioned that the big moment that you all (?) have been waiting for, a fight between Jim Brown and Fred Williamson, does arrive in this film....but the scene is terribly unrealistic-looking. (**1/2)
