Not in the class as Brynner, McQueen etc, but some interesting variations upon the theme. A Mexican, an Indian, someone who I would describe as of "Japanese" type origin. You never really find out what the pay is. The villain is seriously vile. Musically not as good as its predecessor. Save for Denzel the cast is probably not as well known and they are quite a different bunch come together at the request of a woman on behalf of frightened villagers (not Mexican-in this case). The big showdown which has to come is lengthy, so don't take your eyes off the screen. Well worth a watch, maybe two. The original I would suspect you will watch over and over. This one, you probably wont. Huge amount more violence too
