The film starts off well enough, with Nell Shipman trying to come up with an idea for a story. She imagines she is kidnapped by Mexican bandits and Bill the good guy (played by her real-life husband) comes to her rescue. The head bandit looks like James ("Scotty") Doohan with a moustache.
A few observations:
1. Come up with a better immigration policy, and this crap won't happen in the first place.
2. If you want Bill to rescue Nell, don't spent almost the entire film showing him driving a Maxwell through rugged terrain (with his dog in the back seat). By then, Nell would normally be doomed. And Bill would have major back issues. And I would be bored out of my skull.
3. How can you shoot your gun at a bandit who is nowhere in sight and pick him off with no problem? Right.
Shipman is good in her role, and the ending is kind of cutesy. But unless you are a fan of off-road driving, this is a snooze fest.
