A fast-talking gunman known only as Hallelujah drifts through a revolution-torn Mexico where loyalty is as cheap as bullets and gold is the only law worth following. Whether he’s outsmarting soldiers, swindlers, or schemers, Hallelujah plays every side for his own gain and somehow comes out smiling. Filled with slapstick mayhem, double-crosses, and wild shootouts, these films blend classic spaghetti western grit with a wink and a grin.
A Yankee gunman, Hallelujah, is hired by Mexican Juarista, General Ramirez to confiscate a case of jewels to fund the revolution. For this, Hallelujah will receive a percentage. But other parties are interested in the case and when they turn out to be fakes, it all deteriorates into a cat and mouse style game with Hallelujah, gunrunners, the French, and a Russian outlaw(!) all searching for the real jewels. - SWDB
