* BigBadWannabe: Sullivan initially seems to be pulling the strings behind the Wild Bunch, and at one point he tries to hire Nobody to kill Jack, but he's [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain ultimately rather harmless]] and mostly concerned that Jack wants to avenge his brother's death (which Jack actually doesn't).

The film is directed by Tonino Valerii, who had previously made ''Day of Anger'' and ''The Price of Power'', but Creator/SergioLeone produced the film and directed several of its major scenes. It was a major hit in Europe, but flopped at the American box office. Leone also produced a loose sequel, ''Nobody's the Greatest'' (or ''A Genius, Two Partners and a Dupe''), directed by Damiano Damiani also starring Terence Hill.

** Especially true of EnnioMorricone's score, which explicitly "quotes" his work on Leone's serious Westerns.
* AscendedFanboy: Nobody.
* ChekhovsGun: Beauregard witnesses the Wild Bunch loading dynamite into their flashy saddle bags, exact replicas of Nobody's, which he comments can be seen for miles. Later, he uses this to kill at least half of the massive gang.
* ChekhovsSkill: Keeping a barber honest by putting a gun/finger up his anus.
* CurbStompBattle: Occurs anytime either Nobody or Jack draw a gun. Especially when Jack fights the 150 strong Wild Bunch.
* FastestGunInTheWest: Nobody is faster than Jack [[spoiler: although that is never actually tested since the gunfight is a fake]].
* GoodOldWays: Subverted, Jack cares little for avenging family, much to Nobody's chagrin.
* HallOfMirrors: Nobody lures a pair of mooks in such a hall, [[DoppelgangerSpin to better harass them]].
* HatDamage: Parodied endlessly, at one point a character takes hold of his hat because he realizes someone's intent to shoot it off. The hat still gets a bullethole.

* JugglingLoadedGuns: The main characters go beyond not using proper gun safety, to firing guns in crowded rooms whilst very intoxicated and using bullets to play pool. All of this is played for laughs.
