Dont waste your time. Here is a play by play: Opening scene with the horse jump. SUPER CHEESY. The bar/ gambling scene is just awkward. Idk if its the acting or the crappy writing. The mayor approaching him just seems out of place. They try to link it back to the crappy bar scene but it is really clunky. The kid scene seemed unnecessary. The missed nudity scenes were disappointing. The artificial feeling conflict with tge powerful mans wife once again feels forced. Pacing in the movie is off. It is off putting. I can't take any more...28mn in.

I don't know why people are judging this movie so harshly. Sure, it's a low budget western but so what? It's a horse opera. How much could it cost to produce one of these? The story is pretty shallow and has some silly holes and there are some minor technical issues with period equipment but those can be overlooked too. This is a classic style western with good guys and bad guys. The good guys aren't all that good and the bad guys aren't all that bad. Pretty run of the mill. This movie could have starred Randolph Scott or Glenn Ford if it was produced in the 1950's. I enjoyed this movie in spite of the minor flaws. I hope there are many more produced just like it. I admit it. I like westerns. There.

Anyone who gave this a 5 star must be on drugs. Terrible predictable plot and high school theater guild acting. Scenes and story lines stolen from other classic westerns . Just wasted 6.99.
