Very early John Wayne western here, has Wayne as the hero of the day, as titular man from utah wandering through the countryside and saving the day by foiling a hold up.
He is then appointed by a US Marshall played by George 'Gabby' Hayes to investigate a gang that seem to win all rodeo events and end up with all the prize money.
No mistaking good guys and bad guys in this unashamed B western tale.
Film seems to use a lot of file footage from Rodeos and crowds from the era which give it a good historical feel and also reveal its low budget, but knowing what it is that is ok.
Average western.
John Wayne = 26/164.
My rating = 6/10.
