An American film produced in 1959. This is the second western film after Red River (1948) directed by Howard Hawks and starring John Wayne. It is called the Rio Bravo Trilogy along with other westerns with similar plots and character placements by the same duo, El Dorado (1966) and Rio Lobo (1970). According to Will Wright's Six-Shooter and Society (1975), in contrast to the classic plot westerns that depicted the exploits of a hero who protects a pioneer community from evil, John Ford's Stagecoach (1939) was the beginning of the revenge theme western, depicting a hero who lives for his own obsession, and then Rio Bravo was the western that opened up the professional theme, focusing on the pride, responsibility, and skill of professional gunfighters, and thus changed the course of westerns after talkies.

1959年製作のアメリカ映画。《赤い河》(1948)に次ぐハワード・ホークス監督,ジョン・ウェイン主演の西部劇で,このあと同工異曲のプロットと人物配置をもつ同じコンビの西部劇《エル・ドラド》(1966),《リオ・ロボ》(1970)と合わせて〈リオ・ブラボー三部作Rio Bravo Trilogy〉とよばれる。 ウィル・ライト著《六連発銃と社会》(1975)によれば,開拓民の共同体を〈悪〉から守るヒーローの活躍を描いた〈古典的なプロット〉の西部劇に対して,まずジョン・フォード監督の《駅馬車》(1939)が個人の執念に生きるヒーローを描く〈復讐のテーマ〉の西部劇のはじまりとなり,次いで《リオ・ブラボー》がプロのガンファイターたちのプロとしての誇りと責任や腕の競い合いを興味の中心とする〈プロフェッショナルのテーマ〉を開いた西部劇として,トーキー以後の西部劇の流れを変えたという。
