White-Stetsoned cowboy hero Bill Cody is appointed sheriff by default of a rough-and-tumble cattle-ranch community. The locals suspect that Cody is a fugitive from justice, but he does his job so well that no questions are asked. Eventually he proves his true worth during a cattlemen vs. sheepmen feud, fomented by a greedy third party. Juvenile actor Andy Shuford again co-stars as Cody's young and worshipful saddle pal. For reasons unknown, one fight sequence in Land of Wanted Men devolves into a pie-throwing orgy, suggesting that the producers were trying to broaden the film's appeal. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
