Das einsame Städtchen Warlock wird von Cowboys der Pablo Ranch terrorisiert. Der Revolverheld Blaisedell wird von den Bürgern als Marshall engagiert, um sie zu schützen. Doch mit Blaisedell und seinem Freund Morgan kehrt auch kein Frieden ein. So beschließen die Einwohner Gannon, ein ehemaliges Mitglied der Pablo Ranch Cowboys, als Hilfssheriff zu engagieren. Gannon muss es auf der einen Seite mit den Cowboys der Pablo Ranch aufnehmen, auf der anderen Seite aber auch mit dem mächtigen Revolverhelden Blaisdell und dessen Freund Morgan.

    Superb dramatic western with a solid cast and fine script. Unpredictable story line surrounding a small town harassed by a gang of unscrupulous cowboys, which begins as the deputy Sheriff is run out of town, leaving the townsfolk undefended. The town council hears of a fixer gunslinger who has a reputation of cleaning up riff-raff with no nonsense, so they agree to pay him $400 a month to keep the peace in their little village named Warlock. Gun-for-hire (expertly cast and played by Henry Fonda) arrives with his evil and slightly crippled sidekick played by Anthony Quinn. After a tense first showdown in the town's main saloon, the rough cow pokes are sent packing with their tools between their legs, but one straggler (Richard Widmark) stays behind in town because for reasons yet unknown the glitter has fallen from his gang. The plot moves about briskly, with both Widmark and Fonda taking turns at being good and bad, leaving the viewer wondering who will ultimately be the hero in the end. Great music, fine direction, in Technicolor and Cinemascope.

    It's a great movie. They don't make them like that anymore. If you'd let me, I'd give it a 10
