FOR PRICE GREAT IF YOU ARE A AUDIE MURPHY FAN
on April 2, 2013
Solid B&W western with more " adult " back story for character motivation than action. B movie with actors working above genre.

I am a huge Audie Murphy fan and have seen all his movies. This is a good movie, although I would not say his best one. Done in black and white, it has the old school western feel I grew up watching. The story is mostly believable, however at times it's a stretch to see how things could happen as they do. Maybe I'm being forgiving because I really admire Audie Murphy, but it is a movie I could sit down and watch more than one time. If you like old Westerns, then this is one you could easily add to your library.

I am an Audie Murphy fan. Grew up with his movies and while not the best actor ever, always seemed to put forth a good effort and provided an appealing character. And that holds true in this picture as well. A man on a mission, pushing those with him to their limit on a cattle drive (hence my reference to Howard Hawks' Red River). It's in black and white, which I can live with. Many good westerns were in black and white, the aforementioned Red River, High Noon, and 3:10 to Yuma to mention just a few. But the conclusion of this film happens in about two minutes and doesn't live up to the care taken to tell the story to that point. Two of the four bad guys shoot each other, while the other two just ride away, and Audie's character saves his father from a cattle stampede, this father with whom he was in a physical altercation with just moments before as a result of learning that this individual was, in fact, his father, right before the stampede began. We then cut to Audie and his herd arriving in Santa Fe, his attitude much improved, having arrived in time to pay off the bank note on the ranch, and presumably resolving lingering issues with his father, THE END. The wrap up of the movie just seemed like some meat had been cut out of it. Otherwise, it was an entertaining and even interesting film up to that point.
