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.
《长津湖》—第七穿插连在战场上舍生忘死、浴血奋战，“我们出生入死 就是为了让我们的后代不再打仗”。新中国🇨🇳开国之战，是伟大的战役！全程看的热血沸腾，情绪一直跟着电影走，鸡皮疙瘩没消过，非常感动，非常震撼！（流了很多泪水😭）
从人物视角看历史事件更容易体现战争的残酷，但好像战争的宏大和历史意义又稍欠缺。三个小时不觉得长，结尾还觉得有点不够。为国捐躯真是男人的终极浪漫…
开局美军的态度显而易见的轻蔑。战火肆无忌惮地烧到鸭绿江边，当看到中朝边境无辜百姓们已然遭受的处境，我更深刻地领会了教员和彭老总的那番对话。我们会明白这份不得不打的决心是为了什么而坚定，这场看似力量悬殊的仗，既是为了新中国得来不易的和平与发展机遇而打，也是为了作为军人的尊严、这支军队的荣耀而打。我们的志愿军战士不是生来就那样勇敢，他们流血也流泪，会思念亲人，会在敌人密集的炮火中倒下，也会害怕一个人永远被落在异国他乡。他们对美好生活都有属于自己的遐想，胸中藏了最柔软的那份记挂。可恰是这份平凡的私心，让他们成为无私无畏的英雄。他们的舍生赴死为至亲也为别人家的孩子，是为了新中国的每一个孩子能安稳地陪在父母身边，肉体凡胎为此也能坚不可摧。
首先，向志愿军致以最崇高的敬意，他们是英雄，是史上最强轻步兵，也是最可爱的人。这部电影啊，虽然是难得的好片，但是作为军迷和曾经的军人，总觉得差点意思。真没想到，影片中居然没有水门桥，相较之下，乱石滩空袭和炸毁通信塔这两个重点部分，显得可有可无，完全可以精简或删除。而结尾部分，特级英雄杨根思和冰雕连，处理的太草率了。
谈谈几点电影的不足。
第一场正面对战非常好看，紧张刺激，除了满场跑也不会被打到的男主光环有点出戏，第二幕反攻的长津湖之战走人海战，精彩程度不如第一幕，雷公人物角色圆满了，抗美援朝是中国打的很困难的一战，美方装备精良，而中国每个充满必胜决心的战士们不怕死不怕难创造了奇迹啊。
三个半
当年志愿军非常艰辛，可是这电影怎么回事？把那么多故事强塞进一场电影里，看到结局内心毫无波澜只觉着心累，人物刻画扁平呆板不够立体
《长津湖》是我看过关于抗美援朝最好的一部电影，故事线清晰，人物塑造鲜活，使人很快进入电影里，跟着演员们回到那个残忍无比的战场中。这部影片无论是剧本，场景，演技都堪称一绝，整个制作值得称赞，几位演员的表现必须好评。印象深刻的台词：这个仗我们不打，就得留给下一辈打，我们把该打的仗都打了，我们的后辈就不用打了。
都是战斗场面，基本没有剧情，除了敬佩志愿军战士，其他我无话可说。
中国电影战争场面的天花板，三个小时时长完全没让观众觉得冗长，每一个人物包括配角都形象鲜明，这几点非常可贵。但还是有《1921》相同的转场衔接生硬毛病，不知道是不是该算黄建新的锅。陈凯歌贡献了一幕名场面，拉开火车车厢，映照在朝阳下的万里长城，浪漫至极。林超贤的枪战动作戏给劲。
几个导演导的片段风格割裂严重。主角金手指开大了，演技再磨练磨练吧
比预告片差远了，没有新意，战争片段有点混乱，个人觉得还不如金刚川
感谢人民子弟兵带来的现在这样安宁的生活。
三个小时的电影，可以说没有一处让人感动的，更谈不上震撼了。属于看过很快就会没什么印象的片子。当初没去电影院观看是正确的。
后面战争场面好精彩，中国军队好勇敢，好感人😭
开饭了！！把他们烤成火鸡！
是我看过最好的战争片 2d看出3d的效果
异国他乡，千里冰封，万里雪飘。
看的点映。本来想了半天短评怎么写分怎么打，看了有些评价觉得真离谱啊，影片里的台词已经有很强的思想性了，如果因为审美差异出现不同意见和好坏评论很正常，有的恶意质疑立场的真怀疑是没动脑子想还是反装忠呢，于是被气到了。
