Lame 40's style bad indians, good settlers movie..., 23 November 2006
2/10
Author: dwpollar from Shoreline, Washington

1st watched 11/23/2006 - 2 out of 10(Dir-William Witney): Lame 40's style bad indians, good settlers movie made in the late 60's(believe it or not). This movie definitely takes us back in time when westerns were one-sided and badly acted(these were not good times) and why this movie had to take us back there I don't know. Portrayed as a harsh captain(played by Audie Murphy), his men dessert him in the desert as they are trying to bring 40 repeating rifles back to the settler's base to defend themselves against Cochese's Apache Indians who vow to not leave one white man alive in their Arizona Territory shortly after the civil war. What the rest of the movie consists of is gun battles occurring after the Captain tries to regain the rifles on his own, goofy romance, estranged alliances and of course, the good guys coming out rosy in the end(at least as is portrayed in this movie). Other parts of the movie that are a downer include un-necessary narration(that reminds us of those Disney TV documentaries), canned music and an altogether old worn-out theme that shouldn't have been retread. Besides this I guess it wasn't that bad of a movie...just kidding, it was that bad.
