r 9 'The Quick Gun' never exerts itself, but it's still a western that (only just) held my interest from start-to-finish. The premise is watchable enough, which is fortunate as the acting, dialogue and fight scenes aren't great. All of the acting is on the wooden side, with the exception of Ted de Corsia who is pretty good as Spangler. The cast are all likeable, though don't quite give top performances in my opinion. Dialogue-wise it's boring, there's quite a few moments with blocks of speaking. The combat isn't pleasing on the eye either, given its slow nature. The music and camera work is OK, I guess. If you want to sit back and chill with a western that doesn't take much effort, then this is one for you. It's fine to watch, if underwhelming overall. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Fast paced & routine Western, starring Audy Murphy in a role he played more than once - the tortured soul who wants to do the right thing, even though everyone is against him... Murphy saves the town--It's your standard bad guy vs. good bad guy western. Having said all of that, fans of the genre and Audie Murphey will no doubt enjoy this film... The prodigal returns!! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An old-fashioned Western starring Audie Murphy. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Ordinary, although solid stage western all about Murphy as usual. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Fastest gun in the West Audie Murphy was an idol of mine when young. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I like westerns too! Audie, plus Western made it great. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
