Not one of Alvin J. Nietz's best films, this one was obviously lensed on a very thin budget. Nevertheless, Nietz does what he can with the second-rate actors and third-rate props at his disposal and uses his natural settings to advantage. Jay Wilsey (masquerading as Buffalo Bill, Jr.), makes a too stoic and somewhat uninteresting hero while Miss Wanda Hawley is somewhat miscast as the heroine. She doesn't convince as a rich upper-cruster at all, whereas as a saloon trollop she would have been perfect. Mind you, Jack Harvey is no great shakes as a millionaire either. Fortunately, although he appears way down the cast list, Yakima Canutt has a major role as the villain and is easily the best of a bad lot so far as acting goes, although Horace B. Carpenter runs him close as the incompetent sheriff.
