Review of Navajo Joe (1966) by John R — 02 Nov 2016
141230: A young Burt Reynolds (compared to how I've known him) stars in this spaghetti western. This would be what I call the typical Italian western of the 60s. Don't expect too much quality acting, even from Reynolds, but expect a lot of shooting and other violence.
The story is weak, disjointed but flows enough to make some sense. This film is almost comical but I imagine it was not intended to be so. Reynolds starts off on some sort of revenge kick but then transitions into a gun for hire, leading a gang of scalp hunters-train robbers to a town without guns.
Violence ensues with Reynolds talking on near insurmountable odds.
