Review of Gunplay

Gunplay (1951)
5/10
Justice done
9 April 2015
Gunplay has Tim Holt and Richard Martin looking for work and finding it on Joan Dixon's ranch. But no sooner are they hired then they find young Harper Carter on the trail, afoot and abandoned and looking for his father. Father Robert Bice is found later hanging from a tree.

Previous to that Bice had located a man who was living under another name as the man who swindled him out of a gold mine. But murder is then committed and cowboy heroes Holt and Martin are ready to see justice done and right prevail. Fortunately for them their boss Dixon wants the same thing otherwise they'd be looking for work again.

No mystery, the villain is a traditional one in B westerns. A respectable citizen with a criminal past. Richard Martin even gets a proposal of marriage for the boy's sake and does he fade with that one.

The villain even gets custody of the boy in Snidely Whiplash tradition. This is a man that must be stopped and Tim Holt and Chito Rafferty are just the men to do it.

Tim Holt fans should be pleased.
