While surveying a telegraph line in 1861, Western Union engineer Edward Creighton (Dean Jagger) is severely injured in an accident. He is discovered by Vance Shaw (Randolph Scott), an outlaw on the run from a posse. Forced to travel on foot after his horse was hurt, Shaw at first considers stealing Creighton's horse, but changes his mind and takes the man with him, saving his life.
Sometime later, following his recovery, Creighton returns to Omaha, Nebraska and plans the construction of a telegraph line from Omaha to Salt Lake City, Utah. Facing considerable opposition to the line from Confederate soldiers, Indians, and outlaws, Creighton elicits the help of his sister Sue (Virginia Gilmore), foreman Pat Grogan (Minor Watson), and assistant Homer Kettle (Chill Wills).
Looking to put his outlaw past behind him, Shaw arrives at Creighton's Western Union office looking for honest work and is hired as a scout by Grogan who is unaware of his past. Creighton recognizes him among the men and allows him to stay despite his suspicions. Creighton also hires tenderfoot Richard Blake (Robert Young), a Harvard-educated engineer as a favor to Blake's father. Shaw and Blake are both attracted to Sue and vie for her attention, but their romantic rivalry is cut short when construction of the telegraph line starts on July 4, 1861.
After work commences on the line, one of the men is killed apparently by a mysterious band of cattle-rustling Indians. Unconvinced that Indians are to blame, Shaw rides out to investigate and follows the rustlers' trail to the camp of Jack Slade, a former friend and cohort, whose gang committed the killing disguised as Indians—the gang Shaw left following his last bank robbery. Slade reveals that they are working for the Confederacy to disrupt Western Union because they believe the telegraph service will help the Union. Shaw rides away and returns to the line. Not wanting to turn in his former friends, Shaw tells Creighton that a large band of Dakota Indians stole the cattle, and recommends that they simply replace the herd and not risk a fight with the Indians.
Sometime later, a confrontation takes place between men working on the forward line and a band of drunken Indians. When one of the Indians tries to steal some equipment, a nervous Blake shoots him, ignoring Shaw's order to remain calm. After word arrives that the main camp is under attack by other Indians, the Western Union men rush back to help with the defense. At the main camp, Slade's men, who are again disguised as Indians, steal the Western Union horses. The company discover the ruse when one of the wounded Indians turns out to be a white man. Forced to buy back their stolen horses from Slade, Creighton becomes suspicious of Shaw's involvement, especially when he admits to knowing the gang.
Soon the U.S. Army arrives and announces the Indians have now refused to allow the telegraph lines to go through their territory in response to Blake's shooting of the drunken Indian. Creighton, Shaw, and Blake ride out to convince Chief Spotted Horse to allow them to build the line through Indian territory, even though the man Blake wounded was Spotted Horse's son. Creighton is finally able to persuade the Indians to allow them passage, and work continues until the company approaches Salt Lake City.
Sometime later, Shaw receives word that Jack Slade wants to meet with him. On the way to see Slade, Shaw is captured and bound by Slade's men. Slade says his group is going to burn down the Western Union camp and they don't want Shaw to interfere. After Slade and his men ride off, Shaw escapes from his ropes but arrives back too late to prevent the fire. He helps rescue some of the Western Union men from the flames and burns his hands in the process.
After the fire, Creighton confronts Shaw for an explanation, but Shaw does not reveal what he knows and is fired by Creighton. As Shaw leaves the camp, he tells Blake that Slade is actually Shaw's brother and that he, Shaw, will find Slade's gang and stop them from interfering with the telegraph project. Shaw rides off and finds Slade and his men in a nearby town. At the barber shop, Shaw confronts his brother, whose gun is concealed under the barber's sheet. Slade shoots Shaw through the sheet. Shaw fights back in spite of his wound, killing some of the gang members, and then dies. Blake arrives and continues the fight with Slade who dies from his wounds. Soon after, the Western Union line is completed and the workers celebrate. When Sue laments the absence of Shaw, Creighton tells her that Shaw can hear them.
一个明知将死的女杀手，要在死前找仇人完成复仇。故事还可以，整体上比较干脆利落。主演表现不错，酷、帅，加上日本的卡哇伊对比，增加了笑点。影片从深度上来看，捎带探讨了姻亲情、师徒情、对手情等问题，值得观众思考。
真就奇葩的逻辑，小孩的心理比大叔的命还重要？？看门的大叔干啥坏事了，大叔命贱？
女主长得挺英气。剧情好一般。我现在都不知道，为社么女主会认为是木岛对他下毒的，虽然和她嘿咻的那个男的说是木岛，但毕竟知道她的是她的搭档才对。
就像柠檬炸弹，人工调和的工业饮料，喝多了会麻木，但就是爽，就是有瘾
只能说还行，主角不够酷。确实没事做了，可以看看。
又想学Nikita，又想学John Wick，但这烂大街的剧本跟动作设计，还是早点洗洗睡吧！
在打戏上颇有kill bill1之风，尤其是一人单挑一整个团队。demo逻辑真的是经不起推敲。btw哈里森演坏人更像郭达了
大姐很酷，但是请持续用枪，枪战子弹打不到人也好过近战肉搏看得人用不上力气。片尾曲好评。
这杀手的血条也太长了。。。好在对这种电影只要看杀杀杀就够了，在迪迦都被ban的当下，不知道还有多少机会看这种电影。。。。即使一开始就猜到伍迪的身份，好歹还有个日本妹子不错
感觉很久没看这么工整的动作片了，动作编排得不错，但枪战有点偷工减料。剧情很扯淡，但故事是个好故事。从一开始女主得知自己活不过一天，整部电影就带有一种悲壮色彩。《凯特》不是传统意义上的爽片，看完还有点悲伤，伊丽莎白的演技非常好。
一个电影反映出一个国家的国情，美国控制世界的野心从来不会停止，一个特工潜伏在日本就已经把日本搅得地覆天翻，日本还是一个唯美国马首是瞻的附属国，那么潜伏在其他国家的哪？大量从事暗杀、策反、分裂任务的美国特务又对这个世界造成了多少伤害？自由平等的平静的表面下是无数暗流涌动，多少个国家在美国的幕后操作下面临分裂、破碎，甚至是亡国，来实现美国的霸权主义，人上人制度。
完全没有超出预期，从头打到尾，但就是没有看《致命黑兰》《安娜》《疯狂的麦克斯4》《极寒之城》《特工绍特》《龙纹身的女孩》时过瘾，可能是导演选角的问题吧，女主说不上好看也就是一般人吧，特别是身材。再加上女二号的牙套实在让人倒胃口！
下毒就用钋204，这很日本👏电影剧情很俗套节奏很紧凑，多一星给Mary
和我之前不久看的《火药奶昔》也太像了 本片比那片好一点 动作戏上强一点 女主设定的一日必死也算有一点点新意
剧中及片尾曲都挺好听！Boom Boom Lemon
虽然这预告片充满着网飞大数据算法脚本生成器的味道……但MEW主演要如何拒绝（被算法拿捏的死死地）//KATE这摆明了是在致敬梅津泰臣的KITE吧…虽然剧情本就不值一提，但后端泄气也是泄得有点多。网飞是真有钱吧…这剧好多街景感觉都是搭出来的…还是说日本有个小巷影视城…欧美大片过来排着队用？
2021/9/20/网大模块化女性杀手大杀四方，主线设定有点像寡姐的超体，节奏明快，赛博朋克风，血浆横飞，中规中矩。
基本没有新意，只是双子杀手对女主印象深刻。杀死比尔，极寒之城，安娜，红雀，超体，黑寡妇，攻壳机动队，又一个大女主，但前25分钟就看不下去了，全靠后面国村隼的文戏撑着，黑帮聊四古怪谈，武士刀一剑封喉
柠檬炸弹🤠活力充沛🤠 复仇姐最后才明白自己这一生都是工具人，为了阻止亚仁步她的后尘，绝地反击，想说一句亚仁真的很漂亮
山口多闻被南云忠一秒杀了。决战中途岛也是这俩。。
