      Audience Member Excellent well done western Audie Murphy at his best highly recommend this one James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas July 23, 2023 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining movie with a wonderfully unique four-footed co-star with good horseback riding scenes. Audie was an excellent horseman and did many of his own stunts if not all. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
