A wonderful farce, packaged as western. The dialogues are occasionally to feast on:
You heard what the sheriff said: “No more shooting until the sun goes down.”
James Garner and Jack Elam are naturally cut out for this kind of nonsense. The sequel Support Your Local Gunfighter is also very funny.

This is one of those cases where the comic note falls well for a change in a western. That is certainly not always the case, so that is soon quite a windfall. Especially the barless prison cell is unforgettable. And so is Support Your Local Sheriff! well stocked with more such smile-inducing situations and witty dialogues. James Garner, Jack Elam and certainly also Joan Hackett fill in very nice roles and the rest of the cast is also very nicely filled with names such as Walter Brennan, Harry Morgan and Bruce Dern. With this, director Burt Kennedy made a very nice, light-hearted and, moreover, easily rewatchable western.

Nice film about a town without a sheriff, until a stranger visits the town. A simple but effective plot for this comic western. A bit fragmentary. There is plenty to laugh about and the dryly humorous role of James Garner fits well within the whole.
