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.
每一个loop我都在想：照这个聊法不是早到点了吗？（以下可能计算有误）理论上所有loop加起来约45分钟，这集掐头去尾loop部分时长约52分钟，多出来的几分钟用于深夜情感咨询……PS由于十一、十二季实在太难看了，这朵百合花实在看不下去……
实在不懂为啥不先把还活着家人整出去再找专业人来整这个事感觉解决问题的事情很拉垮啊！这是个数数狂魔吧
只能说选材还不错，但作为一部剧场版很多方面都比不过前作
觉得挺好看的，怎么分这么低。就是整个房子都是被诅咒的太压抑了，一家人都没逃离出去
情怀：6
且看且珍惜，14竟然是29岁👱🏿♂️男演员…期待RTD回归
陪孩子看的，是他人生第二部电影，因为他之前看过大耳朵图图，所以选了，85分钟，孩子问了我八次，还有多久结束，🤦🏻♂️
三分之一的新剧情
现在才开始博士和Yaz的感情线不觉得晚了吗，而且前面也没铺垫，看得我只有尴尬，感受不到cp感。
剧情和小时候看的真没什么区别，就是把几集串起来了而已。
整个就是啊？？？？
不是CC你是不是觉得你很幽默“观众看了三集都没有看出来13和Yaz的感情戏是因为Yaz暗恋博士！怎么样我把暗恋拍的多好！没有一个观众看得出来！”你以为你很幽默吗？？？我去三季了整整三季了！！就tm烟花那里让我觉得她们是双向的，甚至Yaz和Ryan的互动都比跟13暧昧，我甚至都默认这对cp了结果Ryan突然走了？？？然后Yaz突然告诉Dan她已经暗恋13很久了？？？这是在干什么！！！搞咩啊！！！打咩！！！我不接受好吗！我不接受！！
三分之二剧情tv版拼凑，没有美食狂想曲好看。
一半是之前动画里的内容，一半是新改的。把新增的都放预告里了，圈钱也很没诚意。什么时候稀奇古怪的妖魔鬼怪，能滚出国产动画大电影，既不好看也不吓人。
霸王龙小分队…额，队名可以。“双减”后的非书面作业，1/7完成✅（观察是什么味的奶茶？）
比大头儿子小头爸爸还难看，国产动画IP就别拍电影了，一个比一个烂
看预告就知道是土拨鼠之日梗了，还挺失望的。结果意外地不错！
炒冷饭？上影厂应该是带着政治任务来的，来宣传三胎政策，多子多福，从这个制作与剧本来看是比较赶的，就连上映前也几乎没有宣发。小p孩还是可以看看的，但对我这个成年人来说，越南队长胡图图的歌舞属实尬了点。还是TV版好。
感觉剧情特别单薄乏味………但是十三很可爱嘿嘿，这部的姐姐演的也好可爱
陪孩子看的，孩子以为是有霸王龙出现，结果是关爱老人的主题，整部动画实在尬，孩子第一次看动画电影觉得很无聊
