★★★★ · Republic's First Guest Star Western · bobsluckycat · 2010-05-03
This is the first of 3 "guest-star" modern westerns that Republic made, and except for the fact it's in black and white and screams for color, it's pretty good and somewhat tongue in cheek. For the record "Out California Way" starring Monte Hale in 1946 and "Trail Of Robin Hood" starring Roy Rogers in 1950 were the other two. Every cowboy star under contract to Republic at the time is in it except John Wayne. The story is a good one in the let's save the show vein with each cowboy star saying or doing his particular sthick, and of course catching the bad guys in the end. Lots of music, lots…
