    Edit
    • Trivia
      Rock Hudson, in his role as Commissioner McMillan in Cop of the Year (1972), visits the set of Showdown and interviews director George Seaton about a case under investigation.
    • Goofs
      Billy's extra gun at the gunfight at the creek starts off as a single-action blue steel Colt Bisley, recognizable for the distinctive shape of its grip frame, and turns into a nickel-plated double action revolver when he crawls out to the log.
    • Quotes

      Billy Massey: Art, I got to hand it to you. The whole thing went off as slick as spit on a round doorknob.

    Better than you'd think
    It may not be an amazing script, but the couple great actors of Martin and Hudson make it well worth the watch. It's a decent western, even if there's no great "action" to speak of. You won't find any memes from it, and it's not even really blog-worthy beyond the hour and a half of relaxing tv watching. Both Martin and Hudson play their parts in an understated way, which makes it more believable.

    There's enough chemestry between Rock and Dean that they're comfortable to watch. There is some subtle humor here and there, and the story doesn't offend. Personally I enjoyed it, if you like westerns and buddies on opposite sides you may like it too.
