Featured review
Family honor
William 'Hopalong' Cassidy's brother is killed while on a posse and by the Deputy Sheriff Al Ferguson. Russell Hayden so testifies that it was pure murder, but the inquest rules accident. That's when Hayden sends for Hopalong Cassidy.
The posse was in pursuit of the notorious Lone Wolf outlaw and Bill Boyd goes undercover to flush him out.
I had a lot of problems with this story. Hoppy is one of the shrewdest western heroes going and he tips his hand way too early when he figures out who the Lone Wolf is. Definitely not typical Cassidy. Both Hoppy and Lucky Jenkins pursue the outlaws with bullets in them.
Of the regulars Gabby Hayes fares best. He goes undercover in the villain's saloon as a piano player. But spends a good deal of time learning the Wearing Of The Green for the Irish clientele. We hear that and we also hear saloon entertainer Bernadene Hayes sing When Irish Eyes Are Smiling. If I didn't know any better I would swear we were on The Quiet Man set.
A very inferior Hoppy film, the plot defects are covered by one incredible action scene involving the villain stealing a runaway train and forcing Gabby to drive it. It should satisfy fans.
