content
A boy with a great imagination overhears gangsters trying to rob a bank. He decides to forestall them and rob the bank with a gang of children. When the outlaws try to get their hands on the money, he sets a trap for them with the help of the sheriff.
criticism
"Primitive, with all the clichés of the genre, a mixture of parody and children's version of the Spaghetti Western that hopes that the well-known sayings from children's lips will sound funny."
"Of course it's very funny when ... the usual macho rituals of the western world are dragged through the cocoa, but after five minutes you simply know."
Others
