criticism

Little enthusiasm for the lexicon of international film : “Roher Eurowestern, who stubbornly unwinds its clichéd story.” Even the Protestant film observer does not come to a better assessment: “The film shows such a degree of stubborn sense of duty and unreflected obedience that the film The Segnalazioni Cinematografiche , on the other hand, believed that the film was interesting and spectacular due to the lively rhythm and the dramaturgy of the events. Christian Keßler states that the film is a copy of "an American noble western": Innocent persecuted, noble hero, the city full of cowards is there. In doing so, "the film entertains in a decent manner over the entire duration".
