The War Wagon (1967)


The story of a man who was shot, robbed and imprisoned who returns to steal a large gold shipment from the man who wronged him.

A standard, a bit tongue-in-cheekWestern yarn that basically entertains only, because the two leads (John Wayne and Kirk Douglas) seem to be enjoying the romp.

Halliwell**: "Exhilarating but simply-plotted action Western with strong comedy elements and a cast of old reliables."

Maltin***: "Amiable tongue-in cheek Western..."
