Grant Watson Fiction Machine It is a showcase for genre stalwart Randolph Scott, but in a year with 71 separate westerns competing for attention it ultimately forms part of the furniture. Rated: 6/10 Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews A solid but nevertheless routine Randolph Scott oater. Rated: C+ Jan 6, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I thought it was ok overall for a western, but some of the story didn't seem plausible or well thought through to make it good. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A decent Randolph Scott Western. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member wow umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch,.....its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that richard boone, randolph scott, minor watson, jocelyn brando, leo gordon, lester matthews, clam beavens, donna martell, alfonso bedoya play good roles/parts throughout this movie....i think that the director of this western/drama/action/adventure/classics movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie...this is a good western movie 2 watch n its enjoyable movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Even with Randolph Scott, this is pretty much a western off the studio production line, rather generic in all aspects of this genre. 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 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a good movie Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
