Same Old Western Formula....
Ho Hum, yes the cast is great, but the story is oh-so familiar and burned out even by 1953 standards. Yes, it was indeed shot in what they thought was so great and revolutionary at the time, 3-D! 3-D was very expensive to use and never really took off after a short time as being the next big thing, and so it was basically abandoned.
This movie is only worth watching because of the great actors in it and the great locations. Rock Hudson as his usual great early 1950's studly understated self, and Donna Reed looking fabulous in that old-school Technicolor. Phil Carey is pretty darn evil as the villain, but like many predictable old western movie formula plots....guess how it turns out! ..... Ho Hum, worth seeing I suppose, but sort of a snoozer at times.
