thiago s @Thiagostone Sep 29 Filme mais ou menos para fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos para fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e o final salvou o filme, com aquelas cenas de luta. See more 06/13/2022 Boot Hill (the Italian title means The Hill Made of Boots) is the last movie in a trilogy that began with God Forgives…I Don't and was followed by Ace High. Taking advantage of star Terence Hill's fame, it was re-released as Trinity Rides Again. It was directed and written by Giuseppe Colizzi, who also made the other films in this trilogy, as well as All the Way Boys with Hill and Bud Spencer; Run, Joe, Run and Switch. Hill plays Cat Stevens and Spencer is Hutch Bessy, who along with George Eastman as the mute Baby Doll are all somewhat friends and partners by the end. But to get there, Cat is shot and left for dead by a gang and nursed back to health by the circus of Thomas (Woody Strode), which includes can can dancers, dwarves and Mami (Lionel Stander), the dress-wearing manager of all of them, which ain't easy, because when they met, it was murder. Beyond the bad guy having the name Honey Fisher, he's played by Victor Buono, which is quite a treat. There's a strange dual look to this film, with the circus sections filled with color and near surrealism — they were shot by the movie's original director Romolo Guerrieri (Johnny Yuma, The Sweet Body of Deborah, L' Ultimo Guerriero) while most of the film's look is quite dark and moody.

It is an italian-made Western, and its dubbed in english. The film's language is in english, though, so the dubbing might be to fix poor audio. Quality of the film is dvd-quality, and the colors and shades come out in a manner befitting a western. Sweat, dust, warmth and sand cover the land of gunslinging heroes and trigger-happy crooks. The movie dvd has an extensive biography and filmography of Spencer and Hill, which was a nice touch and obviously made for fans of their films. This movie is actually a sequel to an earlier western starring the same two actors and their characters, called "God forgives but I don't" filmed two years earlier. I hadn't seen that movie when I watched this one, so I was unfamiliar with the characters, with whom one might be expected to have made an earlier acquaintance. The film has two problems. On the downside it has a very simple plot which is played out in a direct manner that leaves nothing to imagination. In other words, the movie has very little surprises and you can guess easily how the movie ends. The other problem is that the first half of this movie is rather boring. That changes midway and it gets better the closer the movie comes to finish. You might like this movie if you like Bud Spencer and Terence Hill - movies, but there aren't a lot of the fist-fights which later became Spencer-Hill trademark in their farcical comedies. Although this movie has some farcical elements, they are filmed in such a manner that they don't change the overall serious tone of the film. I expect friends of westerns of that particular genre and era to like this movie - it's well directed, well cast and rather inventive. Also the natural scenery in the section of the movie where they go to find Hearp (Spencer) is astounding- either they took the cast into a natural reserve of some kind of the background was added later in remastering the movie. See more 03/31/2012 Wow, just wow. I can't say that I'm an expert on spaghetti westerns as I haven't seen enough to be exactly fair about my next comment, but I'm gonna go ahead and say it anyway: Boot Hill is the worst spaghetti western ever made. I don't even know how this classifies as a western - it barely even registers as such. Atrocious acting, a shit storyline, horrible visuals and god-awful score. To make matters worse, the copy of the film that I received is a full-screen zoom in on a widescreen print so everything is soft and misframed. Ugh. About the only positive thing about it is that Terence Hill is in it. Other than that, skip it... that is unless you're in the mood for campy circus antics with western antics shoehorned in. Take my word for it, this is just awful. Skip it altogether. See more Read all reviews
