One of John Wayne's late formula westerns, with the Duke as a widower laying down the law when his two young sons get involved in a bank robbery. It seems the old man spends way too much time out on the range tracking down bad guys, and not nearly enough at home minding the kids, and you get the idea Mrs. Green over at the boarding house would like to see more of him, too. George Kennedy overacts outrageously as the outlaw leader, but he does get to wear the movie's biggest and coolest hat.
