John Wayne plays a man released from prison looking to steal a gold shipment from crooked Bruce Cabot, who set Wayne up to go to prison so Cabot could steal his land. He gathers together a gang to help pull off the robbery, starting with old nemesis Kirk Douglas. They've got their work cut out for them, though. Cabot transports his gold via the War Wagon, an armored wagon with Gatling guns.
Duke and Kirk have nice chemistry and banter. Good support from Keenan Wynn, Howard Keel, and Robert Walker, Jr. Keel is lots of fun. Joanna Barnes and Valora Noland provide the pretty. It's an enjoyable western with a few twist and turns. It goes on a little too long and there are no classic scenes or lines. An enjoyable watch but one of the best from either star.
