Works when viewed through the narrow lens of one character’s personal redemption rather than through a wider portal.

Captures the state of civil rights during the late 1960s and provides color and shading to a character whom history associates with Black Hatred.

Falls short of its predecessor on a number of levels and suffers from many of the problems that plague superhero sequels.

The action-flavored Western elements are handled adeptly but the movie’s strongest suit is the relationship between the veteran and his young traveling companion.

This is first and foremost a Roger Corman exploitation special and, as such, it offers all the necessary ingredients: cheesy action, laughable gore, and plenty of T&A.

Something of an old-fashioned courtroom melodrama, complete with impassioned speeches, a sneering prosecutor, an antagonistic judge, and a last-minute gotcha!
