Powderkeg (1971)

A bandit hijacks a train in Mexico with American and Mexican passengers. He says he is going to kill all passengers if his brother, who is in a cell waiting for his death sentence to be carried out, is not freed. Two mercenaries are hired to rescue the passengers.

This is a television movie which spun off a television series named Bearcats!. It is well made on a passably well written script. Overall, it is slightly entertaining but not very memorable. One performance should be singled out for its excellence: Lamas as the leader of the bandits.

Rating: 38
