All action B western
malcolmgsw22 March 2022
This has everything packed into its 53 minutes. Gunfights,fistfights, barroom brawls, stagecoach holdups,songs by Bob Baker,and comedy from Fuzzy Knight. Now Johnny Mack Brown may not be the most inspiring of Western heroes bit he knew how to bring the villains to justice.

West of Carson City
coltras3527 May 2024
A judge leads a crusade against the illegitimate governing of a gold rush town by gamblers intent on cleaning out the prospectors. At the urging of some of the townsfolk, he does the cleaning out instead.

There's another ghost town featured in this western, but only briefly before gold is found and it becomes a thriving town with some lawlessness to boot, and here Harry Wood's crooked shenanigans take root. Que: Johnny Mack Brown who rides in looking for his ranch hands and ends up fighting and shooting and romancing Penny Moran. Pleasant action western with a smooth plot, nice songs and clean entertainment.
