Directed by Fred Sears
A sequel to West of Dodge City (1947), this below-average Charles Starrett oater reveals that rather than drowning, nefarious Henry Hardison (Fred F. Sears) is still very much alive and engaged in blackmailing his brother, Judge Anthony Dillon (Luther Crockett). Enter the Durango Kid, alias Steve Ramsey (Starrett), who is in Bonanza Town looking for $30,000 stolen from a bank in Dodge City. Also present, needless to say, is bumbling Smiley Burnette, who once again perform a few of his own compositions. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide

disliked it.
The Durango Kid series was visibly running out of steam by 1951. That and economy measures necessitated by competition from television westerns account for entries like Bonanza Town, which offers very little original footage. One of the few upshots of this otherwise lamentable situation is the fact that in addition to a character jokingly given the name "Marshall Reed" (but played by Paul McGuire), the real Marshall Reed appears in the stock footage! ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
