A note of trivia: Ed Begley Sr., Alan Hale Jr., Bruce Dern, father of Laura Dern, and James MacArthur, son of Helen Hayes are in the film's illustrious cast. I don't believe this film got big play by the critics on initial release probably because they were late comers to the Sergio Leone trilogy. Taken in context with the trajectory that Clint Eastwood's career has taken it's very consistent with themes explored in his latter works. Here frontier justice, vigilanteism, and the death penalty ... Read More

The Bottom Line:
The Western genre is inextricably linked to the nature of justice and in this regard Hang 'Em High, the story of a wrongfully-lynched man who survives and seeks to avenge the crime of his hanging, is a complete success; however, in terms of sheer enjoyment it falls considerably behind movies like The Good the Bad and the Ugly or The Outlaw Josey Wales, so if you don't dig the justice themes and just want more action look elsewhere.
3/4

This was a typical Clint Eastwood film. I liked it better than his spaghetti westerns.
Rating: -
Hang 'em High is the best Eastwood Western in my opinion. He get's revenage on his enemies one by one. After being hanged and left for dead he comes back and each one of the men that was involved in his hanging get picked off one by one. If you have not seen this movie then you are missing out on a good one. The story line is great and of course Clint Eastwood never fails to give us his best.

Editorial Review:
Product Description:
Clint Eastwood carves his niche as the quintessential tough guy in this brazen tale about a rampaging band of vigilantes who make two mistakes: they hang the wrong man and they don't finish the job.
Amazon.com:
After starring in the now-legendary trilogy of spaghetti Westerns for Italian director Sergio Leone, Clint Eastwood became a box-office star and imported the style of those classic shoot-'em-ups for this 1967 Western directed by Ted Post, with whom Eastwood had worked during their days on the television series Rawhide. Eastwood plays an innocent rancher who is mistaken for a cattle rustler and sentenced to hang by an angry mob. When he is saved from the noose by a passing lawman, he embarks on a renegade campaign of vengeance against the men who attempted to lynch him. Hang 'Em High offers a number of memorable moments and stylistic flourishes, and features a superb supporting cast of Western veterans, including Ben Johnson, Ed Begley, Pat Hingle, Dennis Hopper, Bruce Dern, L.Q. Jones, and the "Skipper" himself, Alan Hale Jr. Made just three years before Dirty Harry, the film marked a turning point for Eastwood, who would soon move into a prolific period of contemporary thrillers. --Jeff Shannon
