Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Wizard-8 Obviously with the title, the producers were trying to suggest that this movie had elements of the classic films "The Magnificent Seven" and "Seven Brides For Seven Brothers". Unfortunately, the movie ends up short, very short.To begin with, none of the members of the family are made into unique characters. They are just a mindless mob of people shooting and acting alike. In fact, sometimes it's hard during the action scenes to differentiate them from the bad guys! Another big criticism I have with the movie is that it doesn't take long for things to get very confusing. Not understanding what was going on, it was hard to get involved with what happens. Also, the print that currently plays on cable TV is full-frame, when this was shot in widescreen. This makes some scenes even more confusing.There is a decent musical score by Ennio Morricone, but that's not enough to save the movie. Even if you are a spaghetti western fanatic, like I am, I strongly suggest you skip this movie.

John Bishop This is not a very good film, nor a particularly good soundtrack, although the music was composed by the prolific musical genius, Il Maestro, Ennio Morricone.There are a number of problems with the comedy/melodrama, specifically the plot. Perhaps they should have spent more time with the wacky extended clan MacGregor shooting away at horse thieves with "Queen Anne" rather than with the seven sons trying to...er...let's see...trying to get back their horses, trying to avenge Rosita's father, trying to rob banks and trains, and trying to upset the misdeeds of Santillana. Also, there didn't seem to be a great deal of screen time allotted to bonita Rosita.There is also a problem with the spelling of the name, MacGregor. In the opening sequence of the film, the ranch sign clearly reads, "McGregor," yet in the titles it is spelled, "MacGregor."

spider89119 This movie has a couple of interesting moments, but mostly it just tries to be "cute," and that doesn't really make for a good spaghetti western. Having a great music score from the master Ennio Morricone can't even save this one from being a below average example.The most notable spaghetti western regular in this film is Fernando Sancho, who is usually great to watch, but here his role is simply that of a crony, and he doesn't get to shine.As for the MacGregors, the senior members of the clan are gritty, tough old Scots, and I kind of liked them, but you don't really see that much of them in the film. The story focuses on the sons, who are so ridiculously happy-go-lucky it makes you sick. It's like watching a gang of seven Peter Pans, and they act like puppy dogs every time they see a pretty girl. In reality, these guys wouldn't survive very long in a brutal cutthroat western environment, yet somehow they do. The movie is also part love story, of course.The most notable part of the film is an especially brutal scene where a guy is repeatedly dragged through a fire.This one's kind of lame, and not really worth seeking out when there are so many better eurowesterns to choose from.

dinky-4 This spaghetti western can be put into the "routine" category. It has one of those meandering plots which seems to have been put together from notes jotted on the back of an envelope. However, patient viewers will be rewarded by a few quirky moments which add touches of interest to the proceedings. For example, there's the piano player in the saloon who switches to classical music when brawls break out, there's a sequence in which the stripped-to-the-waist hero gets whipped across his bare back -- a flogging which ranks 48th in the book "Lash! The Hundred Great Scenes of Men Being Whipped in the Movies" -- and there's a nifty fight between the good guy and the bad guy involving a rotating waterwheel. What's more, the dubbed English voices trying, occasionally, for Scottish accents produce a few unintended chuckles. It's not much, but you take what you can get.
