If you loved The Great Train Robbery, try The War Wagon

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. The War Wagon has roughly 3.1× fewer votes than The Great Train Robbery — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit 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.
