02/03/2017 The premise is promising, but it falls into too many Fifties Western conventions; the clean-cut hero, the chases, the fist fights... there's a woman in it, and she's got moxie but she's still a woman in a Fifties adventure film and is therefore good for very little. That said, it did keeps my interest. See more 09/15/2015 Short western, but the story is effective enough. It's quite ordinary and commercialised with native unrest and double-crossings galore.
