When the bank is robbed, Gene and the boys are singing nearby and the Chief arrests them as gang members diverting attention but lets them go thinking they will lead them to the others. Duke Mantel double-crosses the rest of the gang and with the money, accidently heads for the dude ranch where Gene is. The rest of the gang eventually show up to retrieve the money just as Gene and the boys find themselves locked in a building.—Maurice VanAuken

One of the best of the Gene Autry westerns, a pleasant blend of music, drama, comedy and action. Smoothly directed and it has a particularly good supporting cast. Sterling Holloway is terrific. Very entertaining.
