This Robert Mitchum/George Kennedy film was a lot of fun for me, because until this, I hadn't seen Mitchum in too many comedies/ spoofs. El Dorado had it's funny moments, but it's wasn't a comedy, really. Without spoiling the story, Mitchum plays an aging sheriff hustled into early retirement by the stereotypical gas bag of a mayor, and Kennedy plays an aging outlaw on the verge of being ousted by his own gang. Interestingly, Kennedy's character also illustrates the interesting concept that even outlaws of one generation lived by a code, i.e. don't shoot a man in the back, and as Kennedy's character says at one point, "I don't go for unnecessary killing. Mitchum's character also has his principles, a man who always "keeps his word" - used to hilarious effect at the end.
The chemistry between Mitchum and Kennedy is great, and the action is hysterical, especially the chase scene with a train heading to a rendezvous with the crooks in town. If you're in for a light-hearted, entertaining family movie, I'd definitely recommend "The Good Guys and the Bad Guys."
