<em>'Ambush at Cimarron Pass'</em> is a bit of a bore. Even though I don't think it's as bad as one Clint Eastwood <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambush_at_Cimarron_Pass#:~:text=Most%20film%20guides,with%20my%20life.%27%20%22">reportedly</a> does, I do agree in the sense that this 1958 production is a limp effort at making a western. I found none of the characters to be likeable, not that they're necessarily unlikeable per se, and the events depicted onscreen failed to give me any form of entertainment/enjoyment. Eastwood is solid in arguably his biggest role at this point in time, though the rest of those alongside the aforementioned aren't noteworthy to me - at a big push, Scott Brady is the standout of the others. Eastwood didn't return to film acting after this until 1964, but arrived back with a bang with the start of the Dollars Trilogy - I look forward to watching those!
