Immediately after a rousing, finely crafted opening sequence &#8212; in which a team of Rebs carry out an elaborate act of sabotage against a gold-carrying Union train by creatively using hornets, smoke, and rope &#8212; the film quickly becomes rather boring &#8220;good guys against bad guys&#8221; western fare, with some obligatory romance and broad humor thrown in.
