Wild west baddie Wes McQueen consents to participate in just one more heist before reforming and settling down, but is double-crossed by his partners, and prospective girlfriend.
Why Raoul Walsh thought he could go one better on his 1941 masterpiece 'High Sierra' is beyond me, and 'Colorado Territory' is a pretty poor Western remake of a great action movie, none too subtly disguised and most of the time just going through the motions. It has none of the original movie's vividness or whirling virtuosity.
McCrea does well in a part that would become second nature to him through the 1950s, but all in all the movie is a huge disappointment for fans of Raoul Walsh.
