You could label this as just another C-grade Fistful of Dollars/Django rip-off and in a way it IS; but it also aims higher. Protagonist is an engineer who's not willing to grab a gun and uses acrobatics instead. Likewise, the villain doesn't encourage his men to use violence. There's a strong female character which is rare for this genre and an epilogue that takes place in the present. There are cliched characters like a corrupted sheriff and a drunken judge but even they are given some nuances.
