Naughty little television comes clean in this precedental episode out of Four Star's 'Zane Grey' stable. By breaking the racial barrier that has, up to now, existed in video's somewhat rigged version of the early American west, it takes some of the sting out of the gaping wound left by the pay-for-play quiz whizzes. 'Mission' accomplished. [...] Davis, who probably hasn't even scratched the surface of his talents yet, gives a convincing performance throughout. James Edwards has some telling moments as a sergeant of great conviction. As other troopers on the squad, Felix Nelson, Roy Glenn, Ernie Anderson, Bobby Johnson and Hari Rhodes come through admirably. All these men deserve bigger and better parts.
