The Return of Frank James Reviews
Video-Reviewmaster.com
Steve Crum
Fine Fritz Lang telling of Frank James (Fonda) in sequel to Jesse James.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
As a snapshot of what mindless popcorn cinema looked like in 1940, it's a flattering example, still watchable and breezy even if it's not remotely challenging on any level.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The film is short on action but long on courtroom melodrama, not a good balance for a routine Western.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
The abstruse stylization of Rancho Notorious is still a decade away, though the frontier is already a severe plain enlivened by intimations of hellfire
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Gets by with its remarkable photography (an early attempt at color for Lang), crisp action sequences and breezy storytelling.
