What they share
Theyboth carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Action / Crime / Western territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Great Train Robbery, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The War Wagon is
You're a rancher, fresh out of prison, hunting the man who stole your land. But his armored stagecoach carries millions in gold. You assemble a team to take it. His reach is long. Kennedy's widescreen compositions lend grandeur to the dusty landscape. The film lingers in the mind long after the credits roll.
