    When a routine poker game goes wrong, a card-sharp is killed and the man who did the shooting is coerced by the "witnesses" to take part in a train robbery else they will not corroborate his story and he will doubtlessly hang! Thing is, his son "Johnny" (Jeffrey Hunter) hears their plotting and decides the only thing he can do, is to rob the train himself! The plot only becomes more complicated when "Rusty" (Mitzi Gaynor) discovers the truth and his friend "Tony" (Keefe Brasselle) who has hidden the loot tries to double cross him with "Apache Joe" (Michael Ansara). Can "Johnny" and "Rusty" get the cash before it's all too late? It's a rather straightforward little western this. A bit too long, and certainly predictable but there are plenty of action scenes, horse chases and shoot outs. Michael Ansara is usually reliable as a baddie and together with an outing for Aaron Spelling before he knew Charlie or his Angels is worth keeping an eye out for. Hunter and Gaynor are easy enough on the eye and work just well enough to keep this running through to an ending that, actually, has a very slight twist to it. It's about family, loyalty and friendship - so never fear, a moral is never far away!

Ross Bodine and Frank Post are cowhands on Walt Buckman's R-Bar-R ranch. Bodine is older and broods a bit about how he will get along when he's too old to cowboy. Post is young and rambunctious and ambitious for a better life than wrangling cows. When one of their fellow cowboys is killed in a corral accident, Post suggests a way into a better life for himself and his friend: robbing a bank. Bodine reluctantly joins in the plan and the two contrive to rob the local bank. They make good their escape initially, but Walt Buckman and his two sons, John and Paul, are incensed at this betrayal by their own trusted employees. John and Paul set out to bring Bodine and Post to justice.
