★★★ · Tim McCoy - Straight Shooter Falls Short · Poohbah70 · 2019-11-30
An average western with Tim McCoy of the gimlet eyes and piercing stare. He is aided by his sidekick Ben Corbett who, thankfully, is at least a capable man, not just a loyal wimp like in so many other westerns. Ted Adams again plays the villain. Julie Sheldon is okay as the obligatory woman in the film. Well, at least the movie held my interest for its 55 minute viewing time, but not something I'd watch again.
