A beautiful and naive example of how the white man is portrayed as evil and how the natives are bound by their laws. Winnetou is relatively absent here, a lot of focus is on Old Shatterhand, as the title suggests, but in the end, neither of them emerges victorious; it's human folly that, fortunately, doesn't go too far. It’s a bit drawn-out, but there are some good characters here.

Although this film stands outside the legendary trilogy and has never achieved the fame of The Treasure of the Silver Lake, it is a very entertaining contribution to the May western family. Although... It is obviously connected to the work of Karl May only by the names of the heroes, and unlike the film trilogy, it exhibits slightly incomprehensible deviations in the atmosphere (it tries to be more epic and kind of more credible in terms of realities, but the result hardly impresses) and the personalities of the characters (Winnetou gives off an animal and reckless impression)... The plot owes very much to Winnetou: Last of the Renegades, and its better variation can be found in The Last Shot, but... It's exciting, the Yugoslav natural gems are a delicacy for the eye, cardboard cacti are a dessert for the diaphragm, and Lex Barker is just as heroic as when I adored him as a child. The soundtrack is a pretty decent robbing of spaghetti westerns, and because of it, the overall impression corresponds to more like three stars... It just lacks the warmth and homeliness of the more famous May films.

This was not one of the stories Karel May ever told, so I am surprised that it still works. In many ways, it goes against established peaceful rules, but Winnetou's hatred that leads him all the way to the warpath is well developed and understandable. However, it can be seen that the new production company (which only by sheer luck managed to land Pierre Brice and Lex Barker) wanted to bring this closer to classic American westerns. The cold villain Bradley, the emancipated White Dove, and the zealous Tuyunga are simply characters that wouldn't fit into May's books, especially not the plot, which does not add much optimism. Thanks to the charisma of the main duo, Old Shatterhand comes in at a solid 70%, and if I turn just the slightest blind eye to its faults, it can be included in the golden collection.
