BREAKHEART PASS (Released to Theaters in the USA 1975)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì 

Breakheart Pass—interesting story but poorly written and difficult to follow—has a run-of-the-mill storyline. While Charles Bronson has made some great movies, this is not one of his better efforts. It is a suitable watch for the western movie fan, but not a great watch.

? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. It’s a treat to see Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland in a western film but know the storyline is difficult to follow.
