this awful movie be really painful to watch . a small group from a wagon train linger behind to repair a broken down wagon in hostile indian territory . they spend most of their time argue and filibustering and take forever and a day to repair the wagon and attempt to catch up with the wagon train i felt like i be watch gilligan island . any excuse to stay behind and mingle with the indian be use to prolong the situation and ( spoiler ) include a slender pregnant woman who wasn not due anytime soon go into labor 3 day later ( spoiler not . if you couldn not see this lame plot device come and you must be live in a cave ) . the agony of this movie be painfully protract . of course and they have 4 case of 25 kentucky rifle each ( 100 rifle ) that must get through . or must they . hmmm and why do not we show these rifle to the indian and see if they want them . for that matter and why do not we see if the iranian would like a few nuclear weapon . yes and there be a lot of moralize here and and if you do not know by now that give your best weapon to your bad enemy because you be afraid of them be not an intelligent thing to do and then this movie will hammer that obvious point home and do it with a psychopathic vengeance that be firmly root in the belief that every dead horse require a really good beating . but and then again and with the size of the wagon train and the firm belief that these rifle be excellent protection against hostile indian and it would have make much more sense to distribute 4 or 6 rifle to each wagon for protection than to leave these vitally necessary item behind pack in crate on a broken down wagon . it would serve these dolt right if their entire wagon train be slaughter by indian . but then we wouldn not have a movie and would we . that would have be a blessing .
