Interestingly mixing courtroom and flashbacks ( which were apparently taken from a previous Durango Kid film), The kid from broken gun is a well-paced, convulated time filler with plenty of action in between courtroom scenes. The Durango kid leaps off rooftops, swinging from it as well, and Jock Mahoney, playing a guy accused of murder and robbing Santa Anna treasure, also gets the show his athleticism in an energetic fight scene.
It's a well-directed, however I found the Smiley Burnette singing it's the law a bit odd, especially when it abruptly appeared, cleaving through suspense, but the last Durango kid film soon got on track. A fitting end to the Durango Kid.
