Product Description
After the civil war, a union colonel goes to rio lobo to take revenge on two traitors.
Amazon.com
The final film by the legendary director Howard Hawks, released in 1970, found him paired with longtime leading man John Wayne in a story slightly similar to their more familiar Rio Bravo and El Dorado. Set at the end of the Civil War, the story finds Wayne playing a Union army colonel who recovers some stolen gold and roots out a traitor. Though a little creaky (Hawks had been making films since 1926), Rio Lobo nevertheless has his trademark, crackling dialogue, appealing characters, and ensemble spirit among the cast. This was a worthy finish to a fantastic career by a first-rank filmmaker. --Tom Keogh

I ordered this for a Christmas gift to a John Wayne lover. I was exactly what I wanted and in great shape. This is a good movie and we really enjoy it. Shipping was pretty quick considering it to be a holiday. Good buy!

Listen up Pilgrim! Great John Wayne fare. The formula still works: Wayne plus young guy plus crotchety guy plus love interest plus great director equals great western entertainment!
 Not the best Wayne movie March 6, 2009
S. B. Holmer (Ohio, USA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is about the poorest directed movie John Wayne ever acted in. There are long moments without any background music, or background noise, which makes the actors seems like the are acting in a movie set, not performing real life like. During serious events in the movie, one or two of the characters will be laughing. We felt like the movie was just an avenue for the good looking women in the movie to be introduced to movie goers. Over all, this is not a very entertaining movie. It is nothing like Rio Bravo, or El Dorado. Nothing like them. I will not watch this movie a second time, and would not recommend it.
