      When Brady and Billy enter the bathhouse, the shadow of a boom mic is visible on the back wall.
    • Crazy credits
      Right before the copyright at the end of the end credits, the following is seen: "Out of respect for those who believe in and still practice the ghost dance religion, the producers would like to emphasize that the dance portrayed in this film is not the actual ghost dance, but a creative interpretation of the ghost dance."

    The Gambler vs. Bad Bureaucrats

    I give this TV movie 10 stars for being an enjoyable blast from the 1980s TV past!

    The story is standard for a western: good guys vs. Bad guys; but what I enjoyed more than the story were some faces from another time: Kenny Rogers, George Kennedy, Dean Stockwell, Charles Durning, Michael Berryman, Jeffrey Jones, and Sandy Martin (Napoleon Dynamite's Grandma!).

    The stunts and fights are fun, the language is clean since it was 1980s TV, and the ending is light-hearted which always makes for a nice TV western along with 'The Gambler' song!

    Thanks to BingeTV for airing all the Gambler movies in one binge-worthy Saturday!

    (Exit music plays: You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em...)
