Critical reception Variety described the film as "insignificant western fare for multiple bill secondary spots." It wrote, "This cactus quickie succeeds in being interesting in the face of fundamental weaknesses, outstanding being shouldering of original writing, film scripting and directing on one man. Sometimes such arrangement works, but seldom. In this case, Robert N. Bradbury forgets his directorial duties for his script and then again he bears down on direction and tosses continuity to the winds." The review considered that the majority of the cast performed satisfactorily despite dialogue "so simple it weights story" but determined that Catherine Cotter "is too saccharine and routine as the heroine."
