Run, Man, Run (1968)

A sequels of sorts to The Big Gundown but very different in tone and style. Lighter in tone and somewhat sillier plot with Cuchillo being chased by several groups and finds himself in one ridiculous situation after the other. Getting himself captured only to flee again. While it still builds on top of political revolutionary themes, it doesn’t reach the same depth as Faccia a Faccia. It is entertaining enough and while it definitely has more humor than the two previous films, it thankfully never gets outright silly. There is plenty of well executed spectacle, fight scenes and creative camerawork to keep things interesting.


Rating: 3.5
