Richard G I have all of the westerns of Randolph Scott and I rate this one as one of my favorites After a violent beginning of Scott and his old love{Dorothy Malone} and her father the ending is great. See for yourself what I mean. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/15/25 Full Review Audience Member Another awesome Randolph Scott western here that I highly recommend James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas, April 9, 2023 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/10/23 Full Review deke p RANDOLPH SCOTT! Good involved plot. He's so dreamy. Saw it on the GRIT network30.3, 3.2021 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member scott always adds a star on the rating of this popcorn western Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A strange and mildly entertaining western about a vengeful gunfighter on the man who publicly humiliated him by spanking him in public long ago and forbidding him to marry his daughter. The script is underwhelming and leaves the audience feeling cold about the aims of his 'hero'. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Energetic Scott western with a weak supporting cast. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
