Here are its good points:
- Excellent Civil War theme.
- Victor Mature is pretty good in the lead
- Very nice supporting cast with Slim Pickens, Harry Carey Jr., Leo Gordon and Ken Curtis.
- Story moves along nicely and holds interest. Only a couple of plot holes/inconsistencies
- filmed on location, although only in greater L.A. area, not "Nevada".
Here's what dragged it down
- Little girl is horribly corny and almost ruins movie
- Female lead characters are weak and the actresses are lousy.
- Whole plot is on the thin side i.e. not that much really happens in this.
- Indians are not characterized.
