Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Likeable Warner Brothers Western
Star Flynn and director Walsh worked together on two previous movies namely Gentleman Jim and They Died With Their Boots On.This was to be their final collaboration and it lacks the mythologising power of its predecessors but it still remains a solid Western of its era.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Errol Flynn Film

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - SILVER RIVER
Hang on to your Stetson. This is Errol Flynn in one of his best post World War 2 nuanced roles. From the riproaring opening on the Civil War battlefield of Gettysburg, where Flynn destroys a million dollars in Union greenbacks,the way west to Silver City is paved with action,blind ambition,lust and redemption. Mike McComb (Flynn) is a complex character. He is a charming rogue and a ruthless competitor. McComb will traverse any length to have what he wants when he wants it, be it a money making ...
