GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

FightingWesterner My first memories of watching this was when I was about about five years old. It used to come on late at night (eleven o'clock was late back then) and I didn't so much pay attention to the plots as soak up the atmosphere, starting with the shows incredible beginning credits.First things I'd see through the washed out color and vertical scratches were the sun baked desert and the yucca trees, then the Cisco Kid and Pancho would ride across the screen as the rousing theme song played."Here's adventure...", the narrator would shout, "Here's Romance, Here's O. Henry's famous Robin Hood of the old west...The Cisco Kid!"The Cisco Kid seemed at the time, like it was made a hundred years ago. It was barely thirty. I'd assumed that everyone involved were long passed though at the time Cisco had only been dead a few years.Looking back, it's hard to imagine that the "Kid" was middle aged when he made this and Pancho was in his seventies!This was the best "kiddie" western series of the fifties.

eghiorso The Cisco Kid was originally introduced in O. Henry's "The Caballero's Way".However,in the book he was a dangerous desperado, not the "Robin Hood" type character created in the TV series, etc. This comment is in answer to a request by another commenter. He could not find out where the Cisco Kid character came from. He could not find it in his collection of O. Henry works. I hope this has been of some help to him.I find it really difficult to make this simple comment 10 lines.If you would like to research it yourself, you can do so on-line.Simply type in O'Henry.Look up his biography, and short stories.There you will find "The Caballero's Way" listed.

aighaid Fell in love with the show when I was four years old, and never stopped loving it. I always felt that Cisco and Pancho were the ideal men--caring, brave, and gallant, protecting defenseless victims, sending their rewards to mission orphans, etc.The early shows mentioned O. Henry, as in "O. Henry's Cisco Kid"--I have always wanted to know the name of the book or short story that contained the Cisco Kid. The story is not in any of my O. Henry collections, so maybe it went out of print. Also, it would be nice to know who wrote the lovely theme music, and if it's currently available.The show was also notable, to me, for not using women characters only as victims--often, women were just as devious, villainous, and able as the men with whom they were associated.

willslaw ***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** Ooooh,Ceeeesco -- Oooh, Paancho. One of the great classic TV westerns of the 50's. The Cisco Kid is the dapper and oh so smooth do-gooder, loved by the ladies, obeyed by his brilliant steed Diablo and the bane of the bad guys. His trusty sidekick Pancho on the other hand, riding Loco, can never quite get it together, except to bop some bungling bad guy on the bean. Nobody gets killed. The miscreants go to jail and the stars ride off into the sunset, smiling. Le's went Ceesco!
