| User ReviewRalph RDoesn't get much love cause it comes at an awkward time for American Westerns, but it's definitely a winner. |
| User ReviewGreg Winteresting dark western with a good tone and sense of foreboding but rescue scene at the end feels far fetched. |
| User ReviewArnaud CSame beginning plot as the Searchers, but the comparison stops here. Good acting, as usual, by G.Ford. Let's say that the ending is a bit rushed, but otherwise it's a good movie. |
| User ReviewPaul DThis one unfairly suffers from comparisons with 'The Searchers', and it has a similar storyline, however it does have its own grittiness about it, in both story and characters with a good pace throughout. |
| User ReviewBrad WI didn't realize Glenn Ford made so many Westerns! All good so far! |
| User ReviewEric EGood movie, stays interesting throughout, and has a bit of a surprise ending. Glenn Ford is an excellent, underrated actor, and he delivers in this one! |
| User ReviewAllan CThis has some interesting, clever set-pieces and unexpected twists that draw you in. It's shot almost like an art-house movie at times and has a slightly dark feel. I would have scored it higher if not for the sucky ending. Bit of a depressing anticlimax. |
