No frills, fast paced B-western that starts with a chain gang break out and doesn't let up right through the typical showdown-in-the-hills finale. It plays like a very good episode of Gunsmoke or other TV western -- there isn't a larger than life actor here like Jimmy Stewart or John Wayne to focus on, nor does director Ray Nazarro, veteran director of dozens of B-westerns, have much time or inclination (or budget) for scenery or mood or inventive camera angles. It's all about plot, and it's a pretty good one, acted capably by everyone especially Phil Carey as the lead baddie, and is over in a pacey 67 minutes. You could do way worse when dipping into the obscure westerns bin.
