This is good stuff. It's about mighty Speedy Gonzales who tries to catch two criminals acting like he would be a criminal too.

Most of the movie happens in a deserted place - or at least these scenes are so boring that they seem to take more time than the other scenes. Otherwise, this movie has good jokes and some quite funny characters like Mr. Salminen's Indian Tonto.
