You feel more than a little sense of deja-vu watching this film. Sure, the plot is pretty standard, that's fine - it's the fact that the few action scenes there are are "borrowed" from other films. Maybe the production deadlines were just too tight; the weather maybe conspired against the filming schedule - or maybe Duke just broke a nail? Anyway, the plot centres around Wayne's "Sheriff Higgins" who whilst pursuing bank robbers shoots his friend - well, at least that's what he thinks... We know differently, and as he gradually gets over his grief, he starts to pick up the pieces and sets out to sort out the baddies. It's all pretty run of the mill stuff for the star, with Lucile Browne adding the glamour and a slightly flat Gabby Hayes not quite firing on all cylinders either. This film is no worse than many of the others Wayne was making at the time, and once it gets going it's entertaining enough - it's just really sloppily produced and edited and could never be described as anyone's finest work!
