They riddled him with bullets. They strung him up. They left him to die. But they made two fatal mistakes: they hanged the wrong man...and they didn’t finish the job. In his first American-made Western, Clint Eastwood indelibly carves his niche as the quintessential tough guy—cool-headed, iron-willed and unrelenting in his pursuit of revenge. Oklahoma, 1873. Jed Cooper (Eastwood), mistaken for a rustler and killer, is lynched on the spot by crooked lawman Captain Wilson (Ed Begley) and a rampaging band of vigilantes. But as Wilson and his gang flee the scene, there’s one very important detail they’ve overlooked: Cooper is still alive! Out for justice—and vengeance—Cooper takes on the job of deputy marshal…and, one by one, tracks down the nine men who “done him wrong.” Featuring a fistful of co-stars, including Inger Stevens, Pat Hingle, Ben Johnson, Bruce Dern, Dennis Hopper, L.Q. Jones and golden-age cowboy Bob Steele. Magnum Force director Ted Post’s Hang ’Em High is “as savage as it is well-made” (L.A. Times)—an action-packed, pulse-pounding Eastwood Western classic!

Pas le meilleur western d'Eastwood, mais sympa
Na, ja ...

Verglichen mit Pale Rider, den Glorreichen Halunken, Unforgiven oder vor allem dem Texaner (Josey Wales) ziemlich müde Angelegenheit. Plakativer Sozialkitsch und Klischees bis zum Abwinken ersetzen über weite Strecken Spannung und einen =anständigen? Showdown. Immerhin Eastwood gibt sein Bestes und für die mittelprächtige Regie kann er in diesem Streifen ja nichts - leider. Fazit: Zwar nicht langweilig aber weit entfernt von spannend. Der Schluss: ein Schuss in den Ofen ...
(das gut in der Wertung ist für Clint)
sehr gut

ein leider oft unterbewerteter Spitzenwestern mit einer wirklich guten Story und ganz speziellen Typen. Klar, Clint spielt den typischen Rächer, aber mit mehr tiefgang als in anderen Filmen.
