At this point, the guy who shot the sheriff is in jail and the gang threatens to blow up the town unless he's released. However, towards the end the film just stopped making sense.

Most of "Charro!" is excellent.I'd say the first 80-90%. The only singing Elvis does is the theme song.and although I am sure this upset many of his fans, it did make for a much more realistic and tough picture. Instead of a mildly enjoyable, albeit formulaic, romance, this film is a straight western. To say that this film is different from Elvis' other films is a major understatement. Now the sheriff appoints Jess his deputy.and it's all a matter of waiting for the rest of the gang to arrive. And, the first member of the gang, the gang leader's punk brother, arrives in town and shoots the sheriff-injuring him severely. However, Jess is resilient and arrives back in town.shortly before the gang arrives. Then, after wounding him to make it appear he'd been shot in the neck, they let him go in the desert. After stealing a fabulously valuable silver cannon, the gang made it appear as if Jess was responsible. However, he's seen the error of his ways and quit some time ago. Jess Wade (Elvis Presley) used to be a member of a gang in the old west.
