Joe Baker has a dream. He wants to do 'something big.' When he needs a Gatling gun to accomplish this, he seeks out a black marketeer. The price he wants for the gun? A woman! So Baker kidnaps a woman off of the stagecoach, only to find that she is the wife of the commandant of the local Cavalry detachment. Things get further complicated when a girl named Dover McBride shows up. She has come to force Baker to marry her and return east, as he promised to do four years earlier. (imdb)

If you're looking for a safe, no thinking needed movie, this is it. If you're looking for the trademarks of a western - pace, action & hard nosed characters...not so much. On face value this has all that is needed - plot hook is fine, the budget looks adequate & well spent, the roles of the players look interesting & should provide a fine movie. Nice locations. But, & it's a crucial 'but', the players and/or the script has to advance at a rate faster than amiable & it never does. A waste IMHO.
