My official Sabata (1969) review
Sabata gets a 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and a buttload of fancy guns 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Very fun, very fruity, full of classic Western moments and tropes and it is just very good I loved it!!! Sabata is a great character, a little funny and a little silly with his rocking chair and painting goofs. Lee van Cleef is once again captivating in his fashionable ensembles and his ridiculous guns that shouldn’t work but do (how the hell do you fire from the butt of a tiny pistol, dude?).
Supporting cast was excellent too.
Carrincha is a great sidekick (and has his own side kick, Alley Cat). Banjo is a wonderful side character who has a history with Sabata we can only guess at the depth of.
The soundtrack, while not as tense and grand as Ennio Morricone’s work, was still brilliant. And it gave us a great intro theme to boot.
All that’s left to say is Ehi amico! C'è Sabata. Hai chiuso!
Ten out of ten triangles for Lee van Cleef’s face
