The Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin

The Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin is a 1967 American Western comedy film directed by James Neilson, produced by Walt Disney Productions, starring Roddy McDowall, Suzanne Pleshette, Hermione Baddeley, and Karl Malden.

Judge Higgins, a swindler and thief, steals a map to a gold mine belonging to Quentin Bartlett, an actor who is among the ship's passengers.

[3] Howard Thompson of The New York Times graded the film as "Okay, no more", adding that "as a Western spoof, the picture is slow, overdrawn and tame to the point of gentility.

Surely young Disney fans wouldn't have cringed at some slambang, Gold Rush vigor, plus a little 'Ruggles of Red Gap' flavoring.

"[4] Arthur D. Murphy of Variety called the film "a lively, entertaining comedy spoof of the California Gold Rush era.

"[5] Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times wrote: "Everyone turns in winning performances, but they don't get much help from Lowell S. Hawley's routine script, which too often emphasizes dialog at the expense of action, or from James Neilson's equally pedestrian direction.
