Pleasant Universal B Western With A Solid Cast
9 March 2020
Johnny Mack Brown and Fuzzy Knight rescue the runaway stagecoach with Anne Nagel in it. It's just been held up by a gang led by Herbert Rawlinson, the town's banker who seems to,spend all his time playing poker. Miss Nagel is his stepdaughter, but she thinks he's her father. After she almost gets Brown and Knight almost hanged, and rescued by Nell O'Day, the gents go to work for her coach line.

It's an exercise in singing, Knight's clowning, Brown's stalwart heroism, and three, count 'em, three runaway stagecoach stunts, with some mighty good camerawork - I thought Brown did the actual stunt work on at least the first. There are no fancy fillips here, just one of the sharp little B westerns that Universal turned out under the direction of Ray Taylor, but for fans of the genre, it's a pleasant hour.
