L'Action se déroule au XIXe siècle, au Mexique, sur fond d'aventures chaotiques et périlleuses. Après avoir sauvé une religieuse des griffes d'individus qui en veulent à sa vertu, un mercenaire américain réalise que le hasard fait fort bien les choses. En effet, cette religieuse qui n'est pas plus religieuse que lui, en sait long sur les officiers de la garnison dans laquelle il compte s'introduire. Les mythes s'effondrent et une histoire d'amour prend naissance dans ce film d'aventures trépidantes qui confirme le statut d'Eastwood comme véritable icône du Western. (Universal Pictures Vidéo FR)

Not that I'm crazy about Westerns, but I do enjoy the ones with Clint Eastwood. This one was a little different; the filmmakers were going for a more humorous take on things, and those expecting a lot of shoot-outs would end up sorely disappointed, except for the ending. I enjoyed the film even the second time around (except for a few minor issues). Clint Eastwood was badass as Hogan, Shirley MacLaine was cute as Sara, and Ennio Morricone reminded me once again of how much I love his scores. I was certainly satisfied, and I stand by my original rating.

Clint robbing dead bodies while humming a merry tune, a nun who drinks a bit too much and a great western. The brilliant one-liners during the verbal exchanges of the incongruous duo and the ever-perfect Ennio Morricone make this movie an entertaining and inventive watch.

I wouldn't be angry at all if it was a bit shorter, but the spark between Shirley and Clint is so strong that it's surprisingly enough for a good experience in itself. And that is even without a proper plot. And with a traditionally brilliant Morricone.
