Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who likes wide open spaces and slow-burning standoffs and people who like their stories at full throttle. Dust, horses and a showdown waiting to happen. Same wavelength as Silverado.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Moves at a clip, at 1 hr 45 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.
After the hero Julio Valiente was ambushed by Señor Escobar, there was no stopping him from being the head of San Basilio and thereby claiming all the lands, when people are tired of his doings a new Julio Valiente appeared in the person of Islaw and saves San Basilio from the tyrant hands of Señor Escobar.
