The Professionals (1966)

Rich Texan with a pretty Mexican bride hires a group of men to rescue her from a revolutionary across the border. The trip down is long and brutal. The rescue is daring and exciting. The escape is made all the more difficult for the fact that bride doesn't want to leave.

You see the ending coming a mile away, but that doesn't hurt it much.
