      ashley h Rage at Dawn is a decent film. It is about a special agent from Chicago is sent out west to bring in the notorious Reno brothers. Randolph Scott and Forrest Tucker give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Tim Whelan did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the adventure. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Boring 3rd rate Randolph Scott western about the Reno brothers makes Elvis' "Love Me Tender" story about the Reno Brothers look like a David Lean masterpiece. Scott is forgettable as the undercover operative who fakes a train robbery to get in with the Reno brothers gang, then later completely entraps them by planning another train robbery with them in on it. Forrest Tucker and Edgar Buchanan are wasted. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
