Case's sweetheart Della Haines is a passenger on the stage. Case and the Marshal decide on a defense play.—Les Adams

A very cookie-cutter western filled with all of the typical cliché characters and scenes. The final shootout is very disappointing, especially given the dynamics among the characters that led up to the climax. The acting is passable an the movie maintains decent pacing. This is one of those typical, throw-away westerns that fulfilled the weekly needs of the audience, probably shown as the opening act of a double feature. Nothing special here.
