Overview
At the beginning of the 1913 Mexican Revolution, greedy bandit Juan Miranda and idealist John H. Mallory, an Irish Republican Army explosives expert on the lam from the British, fall in with a band of revolutionaries plotting to strike a national bank. When it turns out that the government has been using the bank as a hiding place for illegally detained political prisoners -- who are freed by the blast -- Miranda becomes a revolutionary hero against his will.

The idiosyncrasies are there, all right, but they have never seemed less interesting.
Vincent Canby, New York Times

Features one of the most glorious and unforgettable scores by Leone's composer, Ennio Morricone.

The new print is good, and the 20 restored minutes are choice.
J. Hoberman, Village Voice

The combination of Leone's obsessive close-ups, Ennio Morricone's melodious music, and the comradely chemistry of Coburn and Steiger ignite an emotional explosion comparable to that of Once Upon a Time in the West.
