==Reception== Tom Milne of the ''Monthly Film Bulletin'' reviewed a dubbed version of the film in 1973.<ref name="mfb">{{cite magazine|magazine=Monthly Film Bulletin|title=Indio Black, Sai Che Ti Dico: Sei un Gran Figlio di... (The Bounty Hunters)|page=52|last=Milne|first=Tom|volume=40|issue=470|date=March 1973|publisher=British Film Institute}}</ref> Milne found that "the rather routine proceedings are enlivened from time to time by ingeniously macabre details like the model ship firing from all guns with which Skimmel executes informers, or the "flamenco of death" (spurs glittering ominously on drumming heels) with which Gitano announced the end of enemies of the revolution."<ref name="mfb" /> Milne commented on "it is a pity that so much of the action is clogged up by that old stand-by of the Italian Western-extras falling off roofs in graceful death-falls. This time the supply of cannon-fodder destined for identical deaths is apparently inexhaustible."<ref name="mfb" />
