When Buck Jones talks movie star Dorothy Revier off a runaway horse, shoots some bank robbers and then tells some tall tales, he finds himself believed and in Hollywood -- until it turns out he can't fly a plane and has to beat it out of town.
This comic western is given the class treatment, with director George Seitz wielding the megaphone and Teddy Tetzlaff behind the camera. There's a plethora of good stunts, not only on horseback, but with racing cars and biplanes.
If Buck's line reading seems a trifle stiff, that's appropriate to the character. His physical acting is as good as it was in silent days. Miss Revier is also good as is Eddie Kane as the enthusiastic studio head.
