Violento western titulado en España "Grupo Salvaje". Sam Peckinpah inauguró los western cuya acción transcurría en Mexico en los años de la revolución. Sus protagonistas representan todo aquello que hasta entonces no se suponía como representación de los heroes.

Bondad, heroicidad,.. sino todo lo contrario: forajidos, ladrones, asesinos, sin moral, et. Un cambio que marcó esta película y la elevó a mito y ejemplo a seguir. En esta película destaca el tono de despedida desde el principio hasta el fin.

Representa lo que es muy normal en las películas de este autor, el fin de una à (C)poca, la inaptabilidad de los personajes al progreso. Soberbia fotografía de Ballard que supo sacar mucho partido a las imágenes a cámara lenta muy utilizadas por el director.

Buen guión en el que el principio y el fin de la película se enlazan. Soberbias interpretaciones de todos los actores. Sobrecoge la marcha de los cuatro actores principales hacia una muerte segura pero aceptándola como compromiso de amistad y fidelidad que los redime.

Magnífica y por supuesto su canción "La golondrina".......I force western graduate in Spain " Wild Group ". Sam Peckinpah inaugurated the western whose action was passing in Mexico in the years of the revolution.

His protagonists represent all that that till then was not supposed as representation of the heroes. Kindness, heroism.. but everything opposite: outlaws, thieves, assassins, without mulberry tree, et.

A change that marked this movie and raised it to myth and example to continuing. In this movie the tone of farewell stands out from the beginning up to the end. It represents what is very normal in the movies of this author, the end of an epoch, the inaptabilidad of the prominent figures to the progress.

Pride comes out in photographs of Ballard that it could extract very much divided to the images to slow chamber very used by the director. Good script in the one that the beginning and the end of the movie connect.

Haughty interpretations of all the actors. It startles the march of four principal actors towards a sure death but accepting it as commitment of friendship and loyalty that redeems them. Magnificent.
