America's Revolutionary War is more than a decade away, but storm clouds of rebellion are gathering in Pennsylvania. There, colonial man of action James Smith does what England's provincial command won't: stop the trading of weapons to Indian tribes. Smith intercepts trade shipments, beseiges forts and risks the certain-death charge of treason against the king. (official distributor synopsis)

A bit of classic John Wayne, not standing out much, except perhaps for the fact that the Native Americans aren’t portrayed as such villains. The bad guys are the white ones, and that's just the way it is. Indeed, villains are everywhere, but we shouldn't support stereotypes, right? His character has some issues with women because his mission is the most important thing to him. It’s a bit clichéd, but it still manages to deliver an interesting story with its share of funny moments.
