Historically important as the first feature film to use sound outdoors, but otherwise a static, dated western. Cavalry officer Edmund Lowe searches for bandit Warner Baxter as the Cisco Kid in a dusty western town, where he turns out to be right under his nose. Dorothy Burgess is the girl they both love, but her overacting almost ruins the picture, not to mention the slow pace and lack of any real action scenes which would normally be found in the genre.
