Audience Member One of the best Randolph Scott movie of all time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Fairly ordinary Hollywood western, and a vehicle for Randolph Scott who appeared in many other similar films like this. It's a sturdy enough effort that entertains. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Solid B-Western with some excellent deep-focus photography. The plot becomes a bit melodramatic at times but this is a nicely paced, taut film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Not very good to say the least. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
