Doc West: La sfida (2009) watch online HD

"Triggerman" seems like a trip back in time, back to when Terrence Hill had his peeking days with Bud Spencer. This spaghetti western have all the elements of that, and it actually works out nicely enough.

The story in "Triggerman" is about a small town by the name of Holy Sands, where a woman has a dream to build a hospital. Doc West (played by Terrence Hill) is in for the plan, and the town puts together a poker tournament which draws in gamblers of all sorts from all over. By winning the tournament, Doc West will be able to have enough money to help build the hospital, but of course not all gamblers are of a pure heart and plays with a straight hand.

Storywise, then it is essentially something right out of the good old Terrence Hill movies. So for fans of him, then this movie should hit the spot.

The acting in the movie was quite alright, and they had some good actors and actresses on the cast list. I was just a little baffled about how much in appearance the sheriff (played by Paul Sorvino) was to Bud Spencer. A coincidence or on purpose? Well, regardless, it was fun to watch.

There isn't all that much comedy in "Triggerman", and as such, this movie does deviate somewhat from the older Terrence Hill movies. Whether or not you like that, well that is individual of course. I, however, did enjoy it and was thoroughly entertained by "Triggerman".

"Triggerman" is a fun movie to watch, good entertainment, generic and predictable story - yes - but fun nonetheless.

I watched both Doc West movies and I hope to see a 3rd Doc West movie. I Like Terence Hill and I like Paul Sorvino. I really like watching both movies and they are terrific. It is refreshing to see a wholesome western with some good content in it. it kind of reminds me of the days that the A-Team was on T.V. Nobody gets killed except for maybe one person. Not a whole lot of violence in this movie which means it is a good old family movie. This is a kind of movie that makes me think of Night of the Grizzly, The Bonanza TV series, and a few live action western movies Disney made from the 1960's thru the 1970's. This movie is filled with human emotion, romance and some life lessons that kids will learn. Paul Sorvino gives a wonderful performance as the sheriff in both movies. It is nice to see him playing a character that is good. I am hoping to see where Doc West will take us next. I can't wait to see a third Doc West movie!

A drifter (Hill) comes back to the town of Holy Sand and wants to help the locals by building a hospital, but needs money. In the sequel to Doc West (not necessary but helpful to watch first), Doc West (Hill) is still in high demand as a doctor. After half the town gets hurt in a bar fight he realizes its time to open up a hospital. He turns to the only way he knows in order to make money, a poker tournament. When an evil Dutchman rides in to town, (to compete and stop West from getting the money he needs) West must decide what is more important, the money or love. If you liked the first one you will probably like this one as well. For me, low budget TV movies with bad acting are not my thing. I give it a D+.

Have you ever seen a really good cowboy movie? Well this is exactly the opposite of that, the story is ridiculous, the acting seems like it was done in some amateur playhouse and then recorded with a video camera, and the absolute worst part is the movies speed. Never in my life have I seen a movie where every single scene moves this slow. If your unfortunate enough to watch this movie find someway to put it on 4x because that might make it regular movie speed otherwise its atrocious. 1/10 because there seems to be no lower marks, if these "actors" have a shred of self respect the'll find another profession... perhaps turtle racing.

This is a sequel to the Terence Hill Italian television movie "Doc West" (apparently, both movies were filmed back to back). Whatever you thought of the first movie, chances are you'll feel about the same about this follow-up. For a television movie, the production values are very good, with warm cinematography, skillful camera movements, and a pretty expensive look. Also, Paul Sorvino does a good job as the town sheriff. Unfortunately, that's all about what I can say is positive about this movie. Once again, Terence Hill looks and acts very tired - at times it looks like he is wishing he wasn't there. There are a number of subplots that are not resolved (such as the cowboy who falls in love with a Chinese woman), and the main plot concerning the poker tournament is almost an afterthought. The movie isn't really actively bad - it's just so tired and sluggish that it doesn't have the energy to really annoy you, instead making you fall asleep in front of your television set.

If you plan on watching Triggerman because you loved Hill's performance from back in the day with sidekick Bud Spencer or even his solo work -- then you might want to skip this movie. First off, this is not a comedy although it has some humorous scenes. The acting is very bad from all involved -- except Hill who manages to hold the entire movie together somehow with his mere presence. The story is rather lame and drags on at a snails pace. Also, the cinematography is not the best for a Western themed movie. Every thing has that "new look" that doesn't fit with the rather dusty environment that most Westerns are known for. The problem with the voice acting is that everyone in this movie sounds like they are from Malibu or San Francisco circa 2011. And when we do hear an appropriate accent, it sounds forced.

If you saw the prequel and loved it, then you might like Triggerman. If not, watch at your own risk.
