Nonureva Really Surprised!
SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
bkoganbing Although Johnny Mack Brown stars in this film he does not play the title role. That part falls to young Marshall Reed who is The Texas Kid.Brown is a United States Marshal who is assigned to break up the Scully gang of which it is rumored Reed is a member of. Reed is quite the wild youth, but Brown who knows him from way back when has faith in him even if Brown's partner Raymond Hatton is dubious of the proposition.The gang that Brown thinks Reed is active in has got quite a diverse set of activities. The leader who is the head of the gang and who Brown and Hatton are looking for is also trying to get title to a ranch that Cyril Ring owns. Quite the enterprising group.This Johnny Mack Brown western is below par, his westerns are usually a lot better.
alexandre michel liberman (tmwest) The french director Jean Luc Godard dedicated his film "Breathless" to Monogram Pictures, he probably must have enjoyed their westerns as so many people did. In this film the Texas Kid is a member of the Scully gang and while on an assault, he is recognized by the Marshall Johnny McBrown, who is a family friend. After that, he starts changing and falls in love with Nancy Drew. It is a typical Monogram, there is no philosophy and no depth at all to the characters, but it has a lot of action and is fun. You can call it a "light" western. The trouble nowadays is that westerns made for TV are becoming "heavy", so "Texas Kid" is a type of western that I would enjoy watching in their place.
