Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzRobinson, Ford, Stanwyck and Keith know how to act.
User Review - 10/10 by Kim PGlenn Ford, Edward G. Robinson, Stanwyck and a very young Brian Keith. You can't go wrong with that cast. The film has it slow parts, but the strength of the characters (especially Ford) really keeps it going.

User Review - 10/10 by Greg WNow this is the way a western was meant to be made.

User Review - 8/10 by Private UThis movie was cast with three of the most professional actors in Hollywood resulting in a much better finished product than for what the script called. The action is top notch and Ford, Stanwyck and Robinson are dynamite together on screen. As usual, Stanwyck portrays a tough broad. But Ford carries the film with his no-nonsense acting. See this movie.
User Review - 8/10 by Max NUno de muchos buenos westerns que se hicieron en los cincuentas, de los cuales no se habla mucho y son considerados como filmes menores. No le alcanza para estar entre las grandes del estilo, pero no por eso deja de llamar la atencion lo bien que funciona su premisa, llena de conflictos y excelentemente narrada. Direccion concisa y buen trabajo de fotografia. Hay que admitir que la ayuda mucho contar con un trio actoral envidiable: el Glenn Ford de siempre, la mejor mujer fatal de la historia (Stanwyck) y el imponente talento de Edward G. Robinson. Entretenida.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan Ci'm so glad i watched violent men today instead of a john ford western that was also on. violent men is action packed throughout and all the baddies get their comeupance. although you couldn't ever call it a classic or amazing you can call it solid. it's the prime example of what every western should be. scintillating! who played the mother? the nasty cow? was that barbara stanwyck or was it dianne foster? somebody feel free to tell me
User Review - 8/10 by Richard PThere is lots of violence and major family issues. Great movie
User Review - 8/10 by John R151228: Between the vindictive, self-serving, backstabbing Martha Wilkinson (Barbara Stanwyck) and the ultimatum wielding Caroline Vail, the women in this film got me riled. I was sucked right in by this duo and further by John Parish's (Glenn Ford) apparent unwillingness to invest in protecting his employees, friends and community. And that was all before the film was half over. I was so annoyed I was almost going to it off but then things started to go the way this old western fan wanted, and was conditioned to expect. Martha's true black-hearted nature was revealed, Parish turned out to be as coy as I had hoped and it wasn't over yet. Corruption and vigilante justice was to follow. Moviegoers must have reviled Stanwyck for years afterwards? Credit to such an old western for playing me so well. It's been awhile since I felt this passionate about a story. To top it off, there is an impressive stampede scene near the end as well as a realistic Wild Bill Hickok, Davis Tutt showdown. This film has it all and is now one of my favorites.
