A Wonderful Bad Film
6 July 2016
Audie Murphy that most likable of unconvincing heroic actors. A real life super hero, Murphy compares badly against Randolph Scott who towered above every cheap western he ever made with total conviction as a granite hard hero that you believe totally, that's the movies.In this late western before Murphy's untimely death he is again the all American hero saving the west in a plot about 40 missing guns. The B western like the double bill was dying fast but both were still the staple in the late sixties, but budgets were getting ever tighter and boy does it show in this one. Terrible thread bare plot, terrible acting, hopeless action, poor photography and locations, dire dialogue and my favourite howler of boom microphones clearly visible, this film has the lot, picking out any one of the very many goof's, only add's to the fun. It should be un-watchable, but it is for all the wrong reasons, just brilliant, I love it! And, you may too?
