Trivia:
Yul Brynner, personally, asked
Steve McQueen to reprise his role as Vin. McQueen felt the plot
was too absurd and declined the offer.
Goofs: Continuity: Manuel kills the bull but in the wide angle shot that follows, the body is
nowhere to be seen in the pen.Comment:
Yul Brynner returns to lead a new band of gunfighters in this sequel to the classic
Magnificent Seven,
which delivers enough Western action to please genre fans. Return has
Brynner's Chris recruiting a new Seven to rescue original member Chico (Julian Mateos,
replacing Horst Buchholz), who has been kidnapped by a bandit (Emilio Fernandez).
The Magnificent Seven is such an established critical and fan favorite that
comparisons between it and Return will inevitably yield negative reactions,
and while some aspects of the second film are inferior (in particular, a colorless
new Seven, save for veteran scene-stealers Claude Akins and Warren Oates), it's
capably directed by Western specialist Burt Kennedy, who is aided in no small part by
returning composer Elmer Bernstein's rousing score. Two sequels followed--Guns of the Magnificent
Seven and
The Magnificent Seven
Ride!--with George Kennedy and Lee Van Cleef, respectively, in the Brynner
role. |
