Audience Member b4 becoming a big star Wayne honed his skills in serials like this pre-code adventure serial Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Outstanding movie John Wayne is my family favorite actor Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Though somewhat interesting and cleaner than movies nowadays, I wouldn't call it a thriller. There were chases and such, but it just dragged on and on and there was one chase, kidnapping, and escape after the other, so all the suspense was taken out of it. Quite laughable acting and script, too. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
