By the time Gene Autry made "Blue Canadian Rockies", he'd already been in pictures nearly two decades. Because of this, Gene looks less handsome and a few pounds heavier than in his early flicks. Additionally, films from his later career just seem a bit less interesting to me...though Gene's still in good voice in this one.
Like Autry's later films, this one co-stars Pat Buttram as his sidekick. Together, the pair head to Canada to look into the doings of a young lady. It seems her father is not happy about her creating a dude ranch nor is his happy about her choice in fiancees. Once there, Gene realizes that there's trouble brewing with a local lumber outfit.
The plot to this one is only mildly entertaining and the songs in the film are pleasant but unremarkable. As a result, it falls in the category of a time-passer instead of a must-see effort. Not bad....just nothing particularly good about this run-of-the-mill picture.
