    • Alternate versions
      4 minutes and 53 seconds of footage was cut from the German release. The end fight between Bud Spencer and the Sheriff was heavily edited. Missing is also a funny 3 minutes sequence showing Bud Spencer trying to sit on a bed.

    Spencer goes solo
    This movie is a spaghetti western with a comic twist. Spencer goes solo in this film. He goes to the town of Yucca, where he pretends that he is a doctor. Watching him trying to cure people is simply a riot. He completely has no clue what he is doing, and he mixes up all kinds of crazy potions and does some awkward things. I watched the Hungarian version, and the dubbing is excellent. In Hungarian, the title translated is "Golden Rain in Yucca". I haven't seen this film in a while, but I pretty much laughed the entire time I watched it. Spencer kicks ass as usual in his unique style. I would recommend this movie to anyone who is looking for non-stop laughter and entertainment.
