★★ · Bob Steele - Borders on Being a Phantom Movie · Poohbah70 · 2019-11-28
A ridiculous plot, some absurd characters, a lot of riding back and forth. Otherwise, a typical "B" western of the period. Nothing special. Do these films always have to include a cowardly, bumbling, fall asleep sidekick? Evidently, yes - usually.
