Great movie :) Great acting, love the fight scenes, real pretty girl. Why did I love this movie? Mostly because my in-laws didn't and left my in peace to watch it. Since they haven't gone home yet, think I will watch it again.

I like these old films where they show these crazy fight scenes. Reminded me of the old serials! Not sure of the acting quality, but none the less, I loved it. A step back in time!

Much of this screenplay makes absolutely no sense, and what plot there is only is meant to connect the many action scenes. The dialog, some of which seems to be adlibbed, is incredibly juvenile. The explanation is this low-budget railroad actioner wasn't meant for adults. Shoot-em-up westerns weren't the only potboilers that appeared on Saturday matinee screens. The obscure Imperial Productions probably slapped this kiddy special together in two or three days - any longer would have been an example of gross inefficiency. Just because this romp was fun for little kids, doesn't mean it isn't…
