John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture Without Tex Ritter's performance of the Dimitri Tiomkin theme song, "High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me)," this copycat crime is just asking for capital punishment.

Steve D Not as good as the original obviously but a solid remake. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Audience Member A stupid movie that just begs the question of why was it made. Starts off with a man getting married and than finds out that a man that he sent to prison is coming for him. Instead of being smart and leaving town he decides to stay much to the reluctance of his new wife who is determined not to become a widow on he wedding day and will leave him if he stays. Why he would insist upon staying is beyond me, in my opinion he should have left town along time ago. No shard of character development here just a reason to make a movie about nothing in particular. Leave town already!! The only reason why I even give this a star is because the ending gun fight was pretty good, but way too late to save this mess of a movie. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member A 4 Star rating only because I'm NOT a die-hard fan of Westerns. This was, however, worth the watch. The remake was to me, better than the original. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member The best of all the black and white westerns. Only dialogue that now sounds a bit stagey hinders a fifth star. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member not any where a good as the first Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member skip this and the original Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
