Insights
Review Summary
Pros: funny, energetic western; constant chases and scrapes; memorable music | Cons: overlong and episodic; crowded cast of pursuers; violence amid comedy
Will You Like This?
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a lighter, fast-moving spaghetti western with a treasure chase, political backdrop, and lots of pursuit-driven chaos; Not for you if you prefer serious, tightly plotted westerns like Face to Face.

A zapata western sequel to the hawk and arrow, it's okay, but inferior to the other one
Cuchillo means '"Knife'" in Spanish, and in this movie Tomas milian plays a lover of knives. It started as a quest for gold, and by the end of the film, everybody and their brother had joined the quest. Even the pretty Salvation Army officer who befriended Cuchillo. While all this was happening, Cuchillo morphed from a food stealing wise-cracking troublemaker to a revolutionary.
