Shalako (1968)



The hunter and tracker Shalako has to save a party of European hunters who are in danger from an Indian uprising.

Standard Western stuff, overlong and not particularly exciting.

Halliwell (no star): "A cute idea is given routine treatment; though packed with stars, the action never becomes very exciting despite incidental brutalities."

Maltin *1/2: "Supposed potent casting of Connery and Bardot can't revive slow-moving Western..."
