Young Guns of Texas is a western with a gimmick starring the children of well known actors. The film sees these young ones team up for a perilous journey through dangerous Apache territory, accompanied by a veteran preacher. Gary Conway is hunting for a patrol who have stolen money from the army and this could lead to a personal conflict. There is a wild man raised by Indians who is eloping with a wealthy landowner's daughter, the irony is that it was the landowner who rescued him from the Indians and raised him as his own son and is now hunting him down with his posse.
Conway is the main star of the film who has screen presence. James Mitchum has top billing but although he has his father's looks, he does not have his acting chops. Alana Ladd looks nice but again the acting is just so-so.
Itmis left to the veterans to add some meat and bite to their roles, the film is simplistic, low budget but is watchable enough if you are looking for something undemanding. There is a nice shootout at the end as the different hunting parties converge in Indian territory.
