Movie Reviews of Escort West
Movie Review: REALISM IN A MODOC WAR
Summary: 4 Stars
Out of 67 films Victor Mature only made approximately 5 that could be termed films with a western background. Mr. Mature good naturedly stated that he was a golfer, not an actor, and in that kidding jesture summed up his realistic approach to his acting life. He was, however, a very effective, believable actor.
This film, though set on the trail to Oregon and California, is really not a western. It is moreover a a very interesting story of people undergoing hardship trying to live through another day in Indian country. Though there are horses, Indians, killings, cavalry, and more, but this is not just another shootem-up or oater. It is a change of pace film and though well worth watching is nothing like My Darling Clementine or even Fury At Furnace Creek.
For Victor Mature fans, count me one, this is a welcome addition to DVD. I grew up in the 1950s when westerns were very popular both on the wide screen and on the TV screen. For me this is a non-typical western that presents an interesting story well dramatized by good actors.
Try it for a change of pace movie. It just might be one you will enjoy.
Semper Fi.
