An army of forgotten heroes, all officially dead. They live for combat. Now they've met the wrong man.

When it comes to macho action movies, Walter Hill is the incontestable master. Extreme Prejudice is one of his most adrenaline-charged and one of the best in the genre. It is famous for the lengthy, bloody final shootout that is excellently executed.
Some movies just need to be viewed in widescreen to be fully enjoyed and this is one of them. My fellow fans can now rejoice, here is Extreme Prejudice in glorious widescreen, brought to you by yours truly :)
Note: the fullscreen r1 dvd has only english closed captions, this ws dvd has tons of subtitles but no english sub!!

Synopsis from AllMovie.com:

Walter Hill's wildly over-the-top Peckinpah-flavored Western often borders on camp, but fans of the genre will enjoy the exaggerated posturing of the leads and the film's carefully stylized violence. Employing the Precambrian-era plot about former friends on different sides of the law who are in love with the same woman, Hill adds nothing new, while painting both the hero and villain as larger-than-life, primed-to-explode kegs of testosterone. For good measure, he also throws in a cadre of CIA contract mercenaries, whose indecipherable mission requires a meticulously executed bank robbery. Is this really where our tax dollars are going? Nolte, as the stalwart Texas Ranger, transforms his face into solid granite in what may be his least expressive role, while Boothe seems to revel in the hard-boiled epigrams favored by two dimensional villains. The final bloody shootout in the Mexican village, a homage which tries to out-Peckinpah Peckinpah, is skillfully executed, but its length may have some viewers checking their watch. As usual with Hill, the woman's role is negligible, leaving Maria Conchita Alonso little to do, but Rip Torn, as Nolte's Ranger buddy, is the film's most lively character, and one is sorry to see him get the deep six so early.
