There were a number of things that kept this movie from being better:
"Well, Dee, the bank was there ... and I was there ... and there wasn't very much of anybody else there ... and it just seemed like the thing to do."
As the opening credits roll after a brief prologue, many viewers will immediately recognize the iconic whistling theme music of 1968's Bandolero! So begins this tale of two brothers who have drifted separately into the old west after the last days of the civil war. At it's heart, Bandolero is a story of needlessly losing one's way, yet still managing to find a measure of redemption.
Jimmy Stewart and Dean Martin star as Dee and Mace, the Bishop brothers, in their only big screen team-up. Stewart is a pleasure to watch as he absolutely owns a script very well-suited to his particular charms. Raquel Welch continues to break her Hollywood sex kitten image in a early dramatic role, beginning a string of western film vehicles (100 Rifles, Hannie Caulder). George Kennedy portrays July Johnson, a 'decent' sheriff in pursuit of more than just the outlaws. Larry McMurtry paid homage to this character in Lonesome Dove, giving his lawman the same name. Anyone who has viewed both films will note that the July Johnson of these films share much more than a common name. Both are very similar in persona and motivation. Dean Martin as usual, easily slips into his rawhide. The supporting cast includes many of the usual suspects you would expect to find in a Texas border town. Will Geer, Denver Pyle, John Mitchum, Harry Carey, and Dub Taylor all appear.
Bandolero was filmed in the last heydays of western movie making, as Hollywood genre films began their shift from the wild west into the deep reaches of outer space. And that's a shame, as this film will still be remembered long after many a space opera have crumbled into celluloid dust. With inspirational outdoor cinematography, and featuring the incredible Alamo Village set (built for 1960's The Alamo), Bandolero! is a film deserved of it's exclamation point. a5c7b9f00b

Posing as a hangman, Mace Bishop arrives in town with the intention of freeing a gang of outlaws, including his brother, from the gallows. Mace urges his younger brother to give up crime. The sheriff chases the brothers to Mexico. They join forces, however, against a group of Mexican bandits.
Mace Bishop masquerades as a hangman in order to save his outlaw brother from the gallows, runs to Mexico chased by the Sheriff's posse and fights against Mexican bandits.
This is an underrated Western that gets no critical respect. This is because the director Andrew McLaglen came from a TV background and took orders from Duke in a series of late Wayne Westerns. However, he also did some above average work, including both Shenandoah and Bandolero. This scored a 6 out of 10 in my IMDb rating, which is very good and tallied 15 points in my ranking system, a very good score.
Here's what I thought was good about this movie:
- The co-leads, Dean Martin and James Stewart are great in this. James Stewart is just a wonderful comedic actor. It's a shame Anthony Mann didn't have a sense of humor. He underused Stewart in his 1950's Westerns. In addition to Stewart's wonderful part at the beginning as a fake hangman, there are a number of back and forths between he and Martin later in the movie that are as good as the dialog between Stewart and Widmark in "Two Rode Together".
- George Kennedy is another very underrated actor and like Dean Martin, he's an underrated comedic actor. Kennedy really fills up the screen like few actors can.
- I admit I've had a life long crush on Raquel Welch. She looks great in this and her character has quite a bit of depth. I bought the romantic subplot between her and Martin. Hostage/captor thing, you know.
- McLaglen does a nice job of keeping the story moving. They don't get stuck in Val Verde.
- There are extended location shoots in Glen Canyon in Utah that are absolutely stunning.
- Excellent use of Civil War and Mexican themes.
- Good music score
- As mentioned, good use of comic relief throughout.
There were a number of things that kept this movie from being better:
- There was basically no heavy. The Mexican bandidos were almost completely undeveloped. This severely undercut the dramatic tension in the story, especially since there was so much humor. At some point, humor can cease to be counterpoint to relieve dramatic tension and a movie becomes a comedy. This almost happens to Bandalero and is one reason why it's not taken seriously by critics.
- The night camp studio sets were very artificial looking.
- The ending felt abrupt and contrived.
- The body count in the final shoot 'em up scene was unnecessarily high. The bandidos are pretty ridiculously stereotyped. Maybe that's why they didn't shoot in Mexico. They wouldn't let them.
- More on the final shootout, McLaglen commits the cardinal sin of having the stupid brown skinned bandidos ride around endlessly out in the open, making themselves perfect targets, while the white people pick them off from well protected hiding spots. Of course, 20 bandidos ride in, 40 are killed, and 20 ride out. They run like rabbits when their "jefe" is killed. All implausible and ridiculous
- Finally, exactly what happened to the real hangman? Stewart must have killed him. Inconsistent with his character.
