Triple Justice

Brad Henderson (George O'Brien) is headed to Star City to be the best man at his friend Sheriff Bill Gregory's wedding. He encounters three bank robbers. They tell him that they are going to a wedding and he assumes that they are going to his friend's wedding. He later gets caught up in a bank robbery and accused of being one of the robbers.

This is your average disposable western. The story is a little different and interesting. Despite all the horse riding, I am somewhat underwhelmed by the number of stunts. There is a need to get some more thrills. I can do with fewer weddings although I may be alone in that.

This RKO western was the last in O'Briens western career with the exception of a couple of films for John Ford and an outing with the Three Stooges.It is a very formulaic B western.The sort that starts with a bank robbery and a couple of murders in the first reel to make sure that the audience was well and truly hooked.There are a couple of songs from a sister act which seemed to be compulsory for westerns of this period.George O'Brien seems to be a fairly laid back character at times softly smiling and obviously,at least mentally,one step ahead of the villains.So altogether it passes a reasonably entertaining hour.So if you see it in the schedules it is worth giving it a view.
