User Reviews

For swashbuckler and Tom Mix fans

In eighteenth century England, gentleman highwayman Dick Turpin (Tom Mix) overcomes many difficulties to rescue his sweetheart from a terrible marriage.

Fox attempted to recast Tom Mix as an adventure hero. Unfortunately, he still seems as happy caressing the horse as the girl. The action sequences are well done, especially the bare knuckles boxing match. Good production values, costumes and sets. A cast of hundreds.
