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.
剧情太弱了，也很拖沓，从小看多了hk警察黑帮片看到这里面的卧底戏份也太过于儿戏。怎么看都是很优秀的演员阵容结果拍成这样......演员演技能让我入戏，但是反派和情节冲突实在太过于幼稚，整部片的节奏很奇怪，我以为是高潮的戏份却平平无奇看过去了，反派想把小警察淹死那里我看的时候笑出声，这年头当反派真的不用戴脑子了吗？大反派下线那段戏也很好笑。两星给赵震雄，一星给崔宇植，that's all.
电影好难看。。但是你崔腿真的好长，好喜欢🥺🥵
电影层面的缺点不用多说 充斥着每一秒 但作为儿童片很到位 从情节到内涵到简单直接 是孩子们可能真的喜欢的东西 幼稚 但不蠢
二十亿还回来那里有点意思。

童话大王郑渊洁就是80，90后的神。
想起朋友对我说过，贪官奸，清官更要奸，这样才能制住贪官。警察还是要黑才能制住黑势力啊。
断断续续看了一点，很失望：1、皮皮鲁的孩子表演真是很僵化；2、老师什么的都太脸谱化了；3、考试作弊那个设计真是很傻；4、救火时候用衣服挂在绳索上拽着滑下来的设计难道不危险吗？不怕孩子效仿？
看在小崔和我朴叔的份上多给一星。
🎬《警官之血》🌟🌟🌟
姐青回！郑渊洁，中国儿童YYDS！故事情节相当简单，但是很有教育意义。尤其是小朋友的演技自然不造作。田雨老师不愧是春风化雨——有种爸爸叫夏东海。至于妈妈，对不起，还是和原著一样，功利无情。我很好奇，把妈妈人设立成这样，郑爷爷，您夫人知道吗？最后弱弱的问一句：绿茶婊的颜值，一定比主人公的颜值要高冷吗？
同步看的《夜叉》，韩国片看多了也挺套路的，不过至少比《夜叉》好
特效很一般，对儿童片本不应苛求，这电影前后两部分的故事是完全割裂的。
哪个地方没有黑警？ 你以为廉政公署真的是抓黑警察的，那你真的想多了！
适合带孩子一起看，虽然情节简单，但不乏笑点，引人深思。又想起了做孩子的时候与父母对抗的心情，以及教育与孩子天性，素质教育与应试教育的矛盾，以及当年一起看《童话大王》的小伙伴们。
小人很可爱，两个主角不合格。又不是没有会演戏的孩子，非要他们吗？没有原著好，但是算比较完整。
剧情要是能再丰满一点就很赞了，主演们演技在线！
无聊的故事，无聊的执导，无聊的表演。低端韩国商业片流水线产物，演员们之间的配合也毫无化学反应，每个人都是一副赶紧拍完好收工回家的样子。感觉赵震雄和朴熙顺选角互换一下可能更合适，不过这种片子嘛，无所谓了。
全演员演技值得五星，但是人物形象和故事情节有点单薄，没有高潮情节的刺激感。
朴熙顺和赵震雄的对手戏本来应该是忠武路中生代的一次碰撞 结果毫无火花 整体节奏一般 小崔在戏里被捅那段太蠢了 令人直接梦回九十年代
