FIVE-MAN ARMY, THE (1969)

They’re riding to a trainload of Mexican gold… and they don’t care how many killings it takes to get there!

Where the army leads, action fans, especially Spaghetti Western fans- will want to follow. Set during the Mexican Revolution, The 5-Man Army is a niftily executed tale of mercenaries who, on behalf of rebel forces, take on a mission to rob a trainload of gold. Make that a suicide mission, because the train is heavily armored, armed with troops, cannons, and machine guns, and traveling a route guarded by more soldiers. Peter Graves, then known for his role as mastermind Jim Phelps on TV's Mission: Impossible, faces another odds-defying task as the Dutchman, leader of a handpicked commando squad consisting of a strongman, an explosives expert, a circus acrobat, and a Samurai swordsman. This cult-favorite film co-stars James Daly (Medical Center) and Spaghetti-Western favorite Bud Spencer (They Call Me Trinity), with a screenplay co-written by Dario Argento. Famed composer Ennio Morricone's throbbing score amplifies the on-screen action of this ready-to-be-rediscovered film that, wrote The New York Times' Vincent Canby is "for anybody who enjoys lean, taut suspense with no fiddling around." All aboard!
