"I've been offered a lot for my work, but never everything."
I liked the part with the arroyo.
A movie with an entertaining premise, a good cast giving solid performances, and a memorable score. The assembly of the seven gunfighters was very fun to see, and I enjoyed the unspoken understanding between them that they had gained through their shared experience as drifting gunslingers.
Yul Brynner had great presence, but Steve McQueen once again failed to live up to this reputation for greatness I've heard so much about; Something about him just bores me. Horst Buchholz's character was consistently annoying, and Charles Bronson hanging out with kids and asking them if they had older sisters was just creepy as fuck.
There were a few comedic moments I didn't really enjoy, especially the part with the bull. The idea that you could infiltrate a group of forty strangers by putting a different hat on is just too stupid to entertain. The romance sub-plot was underdeveloped and needlessly tacked on, and the way it resolved felt really artificial.
Nicely choreographed, well shot action throughout the movie. The final battle was a real highlight, coming on fast and strong with believable stakes, as major characters were picked off in the chaos.
A great movie, with an interesting concept and generally fun tone.

Yul Brynner in "The Magnificent Seven."
The Magnificent Seven is a 1960 American Western film directed by John Sturges. The screenplay, credited to William Roberts, is a remake – in an Old West-style – of Akira Kurosawa's 1954 Japanese film Seven Samurai (itself initially released in the United States as The Magnificent Seven). The ensemble cast includes Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, Brad Dexter, James Coburn, and Horst Buchholz as a group of seven gunfighters and Eli Wallach as their main antagonist. The seven title characters are hired to protect a small village in Mexico from a group of marauding bandits led by Wallach.

Battle Beyond the Stars (1980), then off to bed.
I love this old cheesy flick; it is one of my truly guilty pleasures.
I mean what's not to love, its Seven Samurai (1954) in space. Thus, by extension it is The Magnificent Seven (1960) in space.
To make that even cooler, Robert Vaughn plays "Lee" in The Magnificent Seven, he plays "Gelt" in Battle Beyond the Stars. Gelt, is his exact character from The Magnificent Seven just in space.

Listen, I watched The Magnificent Seven (1960) so I could see if it fit the heroine's journey (it does) and tell my dad about it. But like, that is the queerest movie I think I have ever seen. How is there only 230 fics on AO3 for it? Yul Brynner spends the entire film in light black jeans and Steve McQueen wears a gay little bandana around his neck and pops his hip every chance he gets.
