★★★ · The emergence of "Fuzzy" Q. Jones · Hans Wollstein · 2005-04-07
An unwritten law in B-Westerns demanded that a heroine's father could never be involved in anything nefarious or illegal. If he nevertheless turned out to be -- as in "Outlaws of Boulder Pass'" Karl Hackett -- he would by necessity prove to be the girl's foster-father. This "Lone Rider" entry is one of those cheap little PRC oaters that are very hard to dislike despite less than steady camerawork, slip-shod direction and sub-par production values. George Houston, an operatic baritone, may not be everyone's idea of a cowboy hero, but he looks solid enough on a horse and his warbling is used…
★★★ · George Houston - Pass the Boulders, Please · Poohbah70 · 2019-12-14
A middling effort - the 11th of 16 according to IMDb - in PRC's Lome Rider series starring a rather one-dimensional singing cowboy George Houston and Al St. John (Fuzzy Jones) as comic relief. Fortunately, here, both the singing, in a good baritone voice, but altogether uninspired and the comedy relief are kept to a minimum. Some people like St. John's antics - others of us feel less is more. The action is strung around an over-used plot - a land grab by a devious rich guy, here played to perfection by I. Stanford Jolley. He is aided by henchman regulars Charles King, Karl Hackett, Ken Duncan…

That said, there was not enough Fuzzy in this film. Pretty generic b-western for the period, but hey, that's not a bad thing. These films can be addicting!
