| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzWell-crafted, well-acted and solid Western. |
| User ReviewAlan WReally good western with Mitchum on top bad-ass form again, this town as a 'town-tamer', a hired gun who cleans up towns of their problem elements by any means necessary. Littel seen, and underated, this is by no means a run-of-the-mill western with some great set-pieces and scripting. |
| User ReviewClay BPretty standard oater of lawman Mitchum cleaning up a lawless town is only distinguished by the presence of Robert Mitchum and a good score by Alex North. This was also Samuel Goldwyn Jr.'s first film production. |
| User ReviewTom HSimple story but great characters. Not just Mitchum`s character but also the marshal(Henry Hull). This is the only film that i know which uses the word "town tamer". all in all it is a decent Western. |
| User ReviewPaul DRobert Mitchum is suitably mean in this western with a simple plot, however his character makes this film very watchable. |
| User ReviewBrody MI don't know what I expected but since Robert Mitchum was in it, I expected it to be good.Something about it was off for me & I had a hard time paying attention through the whole movie |
