Tom (Terence Hill) apja halálán van, de utolsó kívánságként egyetlen dolgot kér nyámnyila fiától: költözzön a vadnyugatra, hátha ott sikerül igazi tökös férfivé válnia. Az öreg három haverja pártfogásába veszi a mimózalelkű srácot, de hogyan is segíthetnének neki, ha Tom egy csinos rókavadász szerkóban, ló helyett biciklinyeregben, udvarias viselkedéssel akar jó benyomást tenni a tahó cowboyokra. Ráadásul sikerül levadásznia a város legjobb nőjét, Candidát az ősparaszt marhapásztor Bob elől, aki kicsit bepöccen és alaposan helybenhagyja hősünket. Nincs más hátra, alkalmazkodni kell a mostoha körülményekhez. A három haver segítségével Tom megtanulja, hogyan kell bunyózni és elsütni a hatlövetűt. Persze a poénok gyorsabban sülnek el...

In the 1960s, imitations of American westerns, called spaghetti westerns, became very popular in Europe (and saved the stagnating film industry). Although Barboni is not Sergio Leone, folk comedies and parodies were his strength. He was an experienced routine director who could rely on the popular comedic duo of Terence Hill and Bud Spencer. Man of the East, arguably his best film, only featured Terence Hill, but it was richly compensated by a screenplay full of parody humor and subtle irony. The dialogues, casting, music, and the scenery of the Plitvice Lakes together create an enjoyable spectacle that I like to revisit. Overall impression: 80%.

I've seen a lot of films starring only Terrence Hill without Bud Spencer, but Man of the East is clearly the best of the lot. The story is, as always, very simple, but it has well-written characters, dominated by Hill and his sweet smile, a distaste for guns and a bicycle instead of a horse. It's also not so much about the brawls (although there are a few good ones) and there is a greater amount of smart humour. But while I also enjoyed the uncharacteristic Hill, who didn't even know how to fight, the best part was the ending, when three experienced friends finally made a man out of him.

You see a 87% rating and you expect some good fun, what you get instead is an ordinary comedy western. The format is average, the story is uninteresting and I didn’t laugh at the jokes. Nostalgia is a beautiful thing, but it should be kept in check for the sake of the young users who cannot go back to the past to watch a film in its time. A Man From the East has nothing to offer today.

A film that hides genuine charm even after almost half a century. The opening credits immediately overwhelmed me with a great wave of nostalgia; that opening song is simply unforgettable. Personally, I consider this among the best films where Terence Hill didn’t have Bud Spencer by his side; here, Terence had the chance to shine as an actor. Bill, Preacher, and Monkey are great characters; a few times I laughed sincerely from the heart. This Italian comedy is well-scripted with decent lines. The story itself probably doesn’t offer any surprises, but I’ll be lenient in this regard; as light entertainment, it works perfectly. I’ll definitely watch it again someday because it’s worth it. That’s all. For me, 8/10. P.S. Morton is awesome :D

A western comedy that is a bit long and whose story won't surprise anyone who has seen even one Terrence Hill movie, but it is still enjoyable. However, the humor is mainly provided by the original dubbing with Vladimír Brabec in the main role - with the new dubbing (even in the original version with subtitles) it is not like that at all.
