Black Aces is the classic 1937 western film starring Buck Jones, Kay Linaker, and Robert Frazer. This movie follows the story of a Texas Ranger named Buck Sawyer, also known as Buck Jones, who was assigned to investigate a series of bank robberies that have been happening in the city. The thieves behind these robberies are a gang of bandits known as the 'Black Aces'. Buck's mission is to investigate and bring the gang to justice.

As Buck starts gathering information about the gang, he soon realizes that one of the members is located in a small town near the Mexican border. He sets out to track him down and with the help of the town sheriff, he finally arrests him. Buck starts interrogating the captured member of the gang, and eventually, the name of the leader is revealed.

To break into the gang, Buck decides to pose as a member of the Black Aces. With his knowledge of the gang chief's plan to rob a train, he gets in contact with the robbers and presents himself as a new member. Buck's plan quickly goes wrong when the train heist is botched, and most of the gang members are captured or killed.

The gang leader, however, manages to escape, and this leads to a scintillating chase sequence with Buck following in hot pursuit. The chase takes them through the hills and valleys and finally culminates in a dramatic encounter that is the highlight of the movie.

The plot of the movie is a classic western plot that is entertaining to watch. The Black Aces is a well-paced movie, with lots of action and suspense in the right places. Buck Jones is excellent in his role as the Texas Ranger, bringing his character to life with clear and concise lines that give the impression of a no-nonsense, but a competent man of the law. In the meantime, Kay Linaker, who plays the romantic interest, adds an element of love and drama to the movie.

The production values of Black Aces are excellent, with the film set designed to give the impression of the barren and rugged terrain of the frontier. The music score is well done, with the compositions matching the mood of the scenes. The camera work and editing are seamless, with good use of angles and transitions to make the film plausible and realistic.

One of the things that set Black Aces apart from other westerns of that era is its emphasis on strategy and tactics employed by the protagonist to foil the bank robbers. This, coupled with the breathtaking chase scenes, makes for an engaging storyline that keeps the viewer glued to their seats.

In conclusion, the movie's strong plot, excellent production values, and captivating performances make Black Aces an excellent quality western that is worth watching.
