*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
"The Gambler of Natchez" is a mildly watchable romantic adventure, set in the 19th century riverboat days... It offers Dale Robertson discovering that his gambler father has been dishonored and murdered by three of his traitorous partners...
In the tradition of "The Count of Monte Cristo", Robinson sets out to track down and destroy each of his aristocratic enemies, with time out to flirt with a breathtaking beauty (Lisa Daniels), and succumb to the temptations of a sultry-innocent river girl, Debra Paget...
Robertson carries off the romantic requirements with ease... He looks good in his fencing scenes... The film has plenty of humor and single combats with pistols, swords and fists... The men are brave and handsome, and the women good and beautiful... Evil is punished and right rewarded...
With a rambling script and tasteful costumes, the picture keeps rolling along to its predictable Technicolored happy ending...
Watch for a rangy athlete: Woody Strode in his decorative supporting role saving Dale Robertson's life..
