As one of the founders of the town of Lincoln, John Chisum is increasingly worried as Lawrence Murphy moves in on the local stores, bank and land by questionable means. Chisum and fellow honest ranch owner Henry Tunstall try and use the law, but Murphy owns that too. Confrontation threatens and Tunstall's man Billy Bonney is not slow to get involved.
尽管是70年的，但还是老西部片的套路，没有出彩之处也没有给西部片抹黑
传统西部片结构，硬让约翰韦恩给丑侄女当红娘，减分了
2.5星，从表面看让传奇影星扮演一个现实中的传奇人物应该是双赢的局面实则却不然，韦恩扮演这个人物最失败的地方就是他把这个人物演成了他自己，当然从某种程度上来说韦恩演谁都是他自己。。。
枪杆子里面出正义。
情节较为松散，老韦恩想把侄女许给出众的年轻枪手，就如同他努力想将西部片移交给下一代一样别脚
