The hugely entertaining classic remake of the Kurosawa masterpiece is still fun to watch. The magnificent cast features Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen and Charles Bronson in roles that added much to their tough guy images. The story translates well in the wild west at the Mexican border where a village of peasants hire gunfighters to fight local bandits that has terrorized them for a long time. Veteran director John Sturges cleverly remakes a classic that stands by its own. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
