The Kid's Last Ride

About This Movie

The Kid's Last Ride, directed by S. Roy Luby, carries that old-school Western charm you'd expect from the Range Busters series. It's the fifth installment, and you can feel the familiarity in the characters, especially 'Crash' and 'Dusty'. The pacing is brisk, keeping you engaged as they head to Gopher City to take on the role of peace officers. The crooked poker game adds a layer of tension, and you can really sense the gritty atmosphere as young Jimmy Rowell gets caught up in the sleaze of the saloon. The performances have a certain rawness, especially from the villains, which gives it an edge. Practical effects, like the stunts during the showdowns, stand out in a way that modern films often forget. It's a slice of its time, capturing the essence of the genre without the frills.
