Perfect cast and a good story

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Buck Jones' fourth role as a Mountie but his first in a talkie. Ross Lederman was an efficient if not imaginative director and with a picturesque location, an effective leading player and an experienced cast did a pretty good job with Mckenna of the Mounted. Buck's horse, Silver was given less to do than in many other Buck Jones movies but was on good form for the chase scenes. The story is one of a disgraced Mountie who joins an outlaw gang after robbing a bank. He is co-opted into robbing his sweetheart's ranch to prove his loyalty but the proceeds from a train station robbery turn out to include a letter that puts his life in danger. These early Columbia sound Westerns and his serials for Universal helped Buck Jones to become the most popular Cowboy star of the 1930s.
