      Audience Member Not the worst western I've ever seen, but hardly a good one. The lead actor and son of a Hollywood icon is not the actor his dad was. Most of his dialogue sounded overly rehearsed and hardly natural. Then there was a song played in the middle of the movie, probably called Renegade that sounded like something from Air Supply in a late 70s or early 80s in a bad cop movie. This movie like many westerns seemed to not only endorse prostitution, but this one made no big deal about the poor Mexican underage prostitute who appeared to be about 12 years old. Realistic? Probably, but why did this movie gloss over it like it was no big deal. And the wagon train Indian fight was poorly choreographed at best. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member This otherwise boring western is made even worse by the casting of Clark Gable's son...who doesn't have an inkling of his father's talent. He delivers every line like he has never heard people speak before, and it is excruciating. Beyond that bit of awful casting, the film is pretty dull and forgettable, not even the casting of James Brolin and Richard Roundtree, or some decent cinematography can help things. I honestly only watched this because it was on TV and I had nothing netter going on, you should skip it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
