This is however not the first western speaking of the killing of Jesse James, remember Sam Fuller's I SHOT JESSE JAMES. And decades later, in 2007, you will have this movie THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES BY THE COWARD ROBERT FORD. This Republic pictures stuff is not that bad, thanks to Stephen mcNally, but I prefered the Fullers' picture, made eight years earlier. Samuel Fuller was also not Franklyn Adreon, you can't compare those two directors.... So HELL'S CROSSROADS is only a pretty agreeable time waster, not more. Robert Vaughn is also a good surprise, I did not expect to see him in such a film. But after all, why not?
