Review of The Bandits

The Bandits (1967)
6/10
By the books western
6 May 2005
As a big Robert Conrad fan I purchased the tape a few years back, watched it once and put it on the shelf, just recently looked at it again and enjoyed it more the second time around. Roy Jensen and Jan-Michael Vincent co star in this by the books western yarn, Jensen, who appeared with Conrad in the "Wild Wild West" episode "Night of the Eccentrics" plays one of three outlaws running from the law and travel south into Mexico where they are caught by mercenaries but are released while on the end of hang mans ropes quite literally, a lot of riding horses through the desert shots later the film meets a violent end. Conrad starred and co-directed on a trip to Mexico during hiatus between season 1 and 2 of "Wild Wild West". If you are a Conrad fan you should be satisfied by this effort, I believe it was Jan Michael Vincent's first film role as well.
