Considering the Cast and Production Value (including Technicolor) This One Turned Out to be Quite Clunky, Uneven, and Worth a Watch Only for a Few Interesting Elements.
The Sometimes Gritty Violence is Softened Routinely with Awkward Dialog About "Violence" and the Occasionally Rousing Scenes of Cattle Rustling and a Stand Off are So Pedestrian as to be Laughable at Times (the dynamite scenes).
In the Randolph Scott Legacy of Over 60 Westerns this Barely Makes Average, Helped by the Few Things that Elevate it to Acceptable. The Good Bad Buys, Featuring Richard Boone (not at his best playing a smitten lover), a Couple of Violent Outbreaks (with Boone and Leo Gordon) of Sadistic Murders, and the Sprawling Locations.
The Good Good Guys are Inconsistently Used for a Balance to the Brutality. Dennis Weaver and Skip Homier (looking 1950's hip) Don't Add Much to the Overall Story Beyond Inclusion.
Overall, Only Recommended for Undiscerning Western Movie Fans and Randolph Scott Completest.
