Storyline:
Bent on unearthing the cynical traitor who sold information to the enemy and caused the death of a dear brother-in-arms, the battle-tested former Union cavalry officer, Colonel Cord McNally, teams up with a pair of ex-Confederates after the Civil War. Now, as honest friends, the three companions ride into Rio Lobo–a dusty town in the middle of the desert overcome by corruption–to bring to justice the one who sold McNally out; however, the town is rife with the betrayer’s murderous cut-throats. Can McNally avenge his bosom buddy and clean up Rio Lobo?

Reviews:
“Rio Lobo is the final masterpiece by Howard Hawks. A great plot from the Civil War and after the war. The plot thickens when Christopher Mitchum and Jorge Rivero join with the Duke’s quest to find the Union traitors. After a big gold heist and mad chase it seemed like the rest of the story might be anticlimactic. However, Jack Elam and David Huddleston give uplifting stellar performances that keep the action at fever pitch. Victor French also gives a memorable performance as Ketcham, the villainous land baron. With all the wonderful performances Jennifer O’Neill as Shasta Delaney stole the show. She played the part of the woman fighting the good ol’ boys and the love interest of Jorge Rivero to perfection. John Wayne and Howard Hawks picked the finest cast for their final collaboration.” Written by frank4122 on IMDb.com

“Simply put, this is one of the greatest Westerns of the ’70s. And with the kind of clout it has, it couldn’t possibly miss.

Hawks’ direction, Brackett and Wohl’s script, Goldsmith’s score and even the legendary Yakima Canutt as second unit director all do their parts to make this one of the brightest and snappiest tales from the Old West ever.

Oh yeah, and the Duke’s in it, too. Comfortable as ever in a genre he basically dominates anyway, John Wayne (the great “re-actor”) makes every word he says and every action he takes as stalwart and as forceful as if he were taking to the screen for the first time.

Much has been made of how weak the younger actors are, but considering the circumstances, they do well for themselves (even a young Lansing, who would go on to bigger and better things beyond the camera).

The liveliest performance, though, is saved for good old Jack Elam, as looney as ever, and handy with a shotgun as well as mouth harp. He also has the best line: “Don’t mind if I shoot anyway, it makes me feel better.”

You’ll no doubt recognize a lot of faces in this film, and probably be surprised to see them there (yes, THAT George Plimpton) but in a film this big and this good, it looks like everyone wanted to get into the act.

And through it all, Wayne swaggers and shoots and helps save the Western way of life.

You have to admit, there ain’t nothing like the “Rio” thing!

Ten stars. Check out “Rio Lobo” but just because The Duke looks at ease here, don’t call him “comfortable”.” Written by Mister-6 on IMDb.com

“Terrific Wayne-Hawks Western, almost remake of RIO BRAVO, which happens to be the greatest Western ever made. This is great fun, loaded with action, lotsa comedy, great finish with the Duke, Elam, Mike Henry and the vengeful Sherry Lansing. And Chris Mitchum’s in there somewhere. My #4 film of ’70. Young people, if you wanna see a Bad John Wayne film, check out BARBARIAN AND THE GEISHA. If you’re lookin’ for a Bad Hawks movie – Stop. There ain’t any. Not even RED LINE 7000.” Written by keiljd on IMDb.com

SINK THE BISMARCK: Short Summary – The World War II story of the British Navy’s effort to defeat Nazi Germany’s most powerful warship.

SINK THE BISMARCK: Full Synopsis – In 1941 Captain Jonathan Shepard takes over as Director of Operations at naval headquarters in London just as they receive reports that the Bismarck, the pride of the German navy, is going out to sea in the North Atlantic. Shepard argues in favor of moving as many ships as possible to the area to find her. In their first encounter with the Bismarck, the Royal Navy loses HMS Hood, the largest ship in the fleet while HMS Prince of Wales is severely damaged. Shepard then transfers ships from the Mediterranean fleet to go after Bismarck; they include the aircraft carrier Ark Royal on which his son Tom is serving as an aircraft gunner. Damaged in a second encounter, the Bismarck heads for Brest on the French coast and the safety of German coastal defenses and air cover. The only ship in range is the Ark Royal but in their first air sortie, they inadvertently attack HMS Sheffield when they mistake it for the Bismarck. In the second air sortie, they damage the Bismarck sufficiently to allow the surface fleet to catch up to her and sink her.

Free Western Movie: Take a Hard Ride – Spaghetti Western – After selling his cattle in town, ranch owner Morgan unexpectedly dies, and his foreman Pike has to deliver the payroll to Sonora, despite the perilous journey during which he’s followed by many shady characters who want the money.

Take a Hard Ride (1975)
Director: Antonio Margheriti (as Anthony M. Dawson)
Writers: Eric Bercovici (screenplay), Jerrold L. Ludwig (screenplay) (as Jerry Ludwig)
Stars: Jim Brown, Lee Van Cleef, Fred Williamson
Genre: Western
Country: Italy | Spain | USA
Language: English
Release Date: October 1975 (West Germany)
Also Known As: La lunga cavalcata
Filming Locations: Maspalomas Dunes, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain

Storyline:
Rugged trail boss and reformed criminal Pike promises his honest wealthy employer Morgan that he will venture across the desert to deliver $86,000 dollars in payroll money to a ranch in Sonora, Mexico. Pike makes an uneasy alliance with smooth, yet shifty gambler Tyree in order to successfully complete his dangerous mission. During their perilous trek Pike and Tyree encounter desperate prostitute Catherine and her loyal ace martial artist half-breed companion Kashtok. Meanwhile, ruthless bounty hunter Kiefer and numerous greedy others give dogged chase.

Reviews:
“Trail boss Jim Brown is asked by dying boss Dana Andrews to carry a large payroll across the Mexican desert. He is pursued by bounty hunters and crooks led by Lee Van Cleef. It’s an exciting old fashioned western that die hard western fan should like. If you like westerns with John Wayne and Clint Eastwood you should love this. Jim Brown and Fred Williamson make very good heroes. It’s not up there with The Searchers or Fort Apache but it’s very good. Watch out for veteran actors Harry Carey, Jr. and Robert Donner as bad guys. Can’t think of anything else to say so I have to keep typing until I get 10 lines. If you like this movie also check out Rio Conchos.” Written by carltwo on IMDb.com.

“The stars of “Three the Hard Way” reunite for this enjoyable if not classic Western. Jim Brown plays Pike, a tough, honourable trail boss who gives his word to his dying boss (Dana Andrews) that he will take $86,000 in payroll money to a ranch in Sonora, Mexico. Naturally, when people get wind of this large cash windfall, greed completely takes over, and various groups form to try to get that money. One such interested individual is smooth gambler Tyree (Fred Williamson, in a delicious performance), who is the first to accompany Pike on the journey. Along the way they also hook up with a hard-luck prostitute, Catherine (Catherine Spaak) and her half-breed / martial artist companion Kashtok (Jim Kelly). Among the money hungry antagonists in this story is sly, sleazy bounty hunter Kiefer (Lee Van Cleef), who realizes Pike was at one time a wanted man.” Written by Hey_Sweden on IMDb.com.
