BULLETS DON'T ARGUE is an example of the Italian spaghetti western just before Sergio Leone burst onto the scene and changed the genre's look and feel forever. This one has a much brighter, clear-cut feel which brings it in line with the classic Hollywood westerns of the 1950s. The paunchy Rod Cameron - looking a lot like a middle-aged Lon Chaney Jr. - plays Pat Garrett, the sheriff hunting for deadly outlaw Billy the Kid, as played to the hilt by the sinister Horst Frank. The wide-reaching plot takes unexpected turns throughout, with good character development and an exciting piece of spectacle at the climax. I liked it far more than I expected to; with Mario Caiano's brisk, seemingly effortless direction, this is a lot of fun.
score 7/10
