Pleasant Spaghetti/Paella Western co-produced by Italy and Spain with lots action , thrills , fights and comedy
A slow first half gives way to predictable action in the second
SUGAR COLT is a very typical spaghetti western with a starring role for Hunt Powers, an actor who doesn't have much charisma and who annoyed me for the most part. The weirdest part of the film is that Powers is asked to solve a crime early on, so goes in disguise for half of the running time before he reverts to the avenging gunslinger-type role at the climax.
Why Powers goes into disguise makes little sense and really drags down the pace in the first half. Essentially he dresses up as a studious doctor and is abused by everybody as a weakling. Perhaps he was a Sherlock Holmes fan, but these early scenes just feel like the story is treading water. Thankfully, the later action scenes are more fun, even though they're very predictable by genre standards; Powers' character is much more fun when he's kicking backside than when he's moping around and looking on.
