Eric S @RT31760328 12/29/2024 For me the story line was unoriginal. I think this is Rio Bravo’s rejected script, it should be titled worst shots in the west. See more ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 08/17/2017 Young Billy Young is a disappointing film. It is about a vengeful former sheriff who sets out to find the man who killed his son. Robert Mitchum and Angie Dickinson give terrible performances. The screenplay is badly written. Burt Kennedy did a horrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture. See more 07/26/2016 A decent By-the-numbers western. See more 08/10/2013 130810: Though a bit slow at times, enjoyable. After building tension for an hour and fifteen minutes, the story resolves itself rather quickly, unexpectedly. It's unfortunately anti-climatic. The line between good and evil is blurred and there are no real heroes to be found in this revenge story (ok, perhaps Paul Fix as Charle). This film took me back to my youth however, being a western as I remember westerns being. Six guns, lever actions and cartridge lined holsters. A pleasant ninety minutes for me. See more 04/20/2013 Okay enough by-the-numbers western starting Robert Mitchum as a sherif looking to get even with the man who killed his son. Writer/director Burt Kennedy was never a brilliant filmmaker, but he did build up a pretty solid track record of making entertaining westerns. This one was more serious than his usual Dirty Dingus Magee/Support Your Local Gunfighter-type of western/comedies, but it did work to a certain extent. It's all pretty unoriginal, but if you enjoy westerns and like the cast (Robert Mitchum, Angie Dickinson, David Carradine), you'll probably find the film worth watching.
