Nick F Veteran Western star Randolph is usually at his best as a leathery high-minded gunfighter in many of his films, but in Ten Wanted Men (1955) he plays a well-dressed gentleman rancher living peacefully in his small community. But that situation soon changes as his bullying neighbour (the scowling Richard Boone) starts land grabbing and cattle rustling, aided by a band of hired gunman. Boone also frames Scott’s nephew for a murder, and with the town sheriff and most of the community in fear of Boone’s band of thugs, Scott has to revert to his usual role as a tough and relentless avenger. The strong cast, which includes Leo Gordon, Skip Homeier and Lee Van Cleef, are on good form but the storyline is fairly standard and director H. Bruce Humberstone needed a sharper touch to get the best from it. Even though it is not one of Randolph Scott’s best films, Ten Wanted Men is still a worthwhile watch.

Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The older i get the more i appreciate the Randolph Scott westerns and whilst this is by no means his best effort, there is still plenty to enjoy - most notably heavy handed thugs like Leo Gordon and Lee Van Cleef. The gun-play and fights are on the poor side, but its still a nice brief western for a Sunday afternoon. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
