      Wolfe: Unfortunately for you, this is one story you will never write. Put a gag in her mouth!

    Very enjoyable

    I saw this for the first time August 2019. I grew up on republic serials but never got to see this one.

    Very formulaic, no surprises there But a totally enjoyable ride.

    The fight sequences are worth the price of admission alone. Great stuff and very pleased to have experienced this after having eluded me for so long.
