What a Sunday afternoon treat! An old fashioned Western ~ updated with drug lords and cops gone bad.
It had everything: good guy and bad guy fighting over the same Mexican lass, evil dude, good dude, action scenes, decent plot, good cast ~ and not too deep.
It was engaging enough to keep me entertained, but I still felt ok to take a few "clean the kitchen" breaks.

lol ... oh yes ... I'm not a man!
Yes, Michael Ironside was great in this film. Good score, I agree ... and I always enjoy Powers Boothe and Rip Torn! Those two alone can compel me to watch a movie.
No confusion for me with the subplot.
My only complaint is that I had a busy day and didn't have the opportunity to give the movie all of my attention. I'm looking forward to watching it again ~ next time it comes on cable ... this time with popcorn!
Cheers!

I remember Siskel & Ebert complaining about the "confusing" subplot involving the six "officially dead" commandos in their otherwise positive reviews,
Bambi, why can't more women be like you?
