Dodge City
(1939)
|
Errol Flynn tames Dodge City, the Wild West's famous railroad terminus, in an action-packed blaze of cattle stampedes, lynchings, gun fights and the roughest, toughest saloon brawl ever filmed – bar none! Hold on to those holsters for edge of the saddle excitement as the sharpshooting soldier of fortune vows to keep the peace between angry cowboys and the corrupt frontiersman threatening their livelihoods. |
Halliwell's Film Guide
Standard, satisfying big-scale Western with all clichés intact and very enjoyable, as is the soft, rich early colour. The story is plainly inspired by the exploits of Wyatt Earp.
