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.
我宣布，Otto取代了我心中Bob的地位成为我最喜欢的小黄人了~~~蹬小车追摩托那段我简直笑到扔手机~~
看完电影给照明娱乐想好了八百个周边，电影院却只有一款产品？！
看过的中国元素最多且都没有出错的电影了，完事马上把之前买的小黄人公仔摆了出来，怎么能这么可爱！
永远爱Minions /永远是Stuart的唯粉 /旧金山太美了 电车上坡也太好看了 /中国元素很多 /第三部不要等这么久了好吗
谁是好人谁是坏人。
讲的是Gru小时候的故事，剧情一般，但全程笑点不断，是我们爱的贱萌贱萌的小黄人了。3.5
蠢而可爱，小黄人的屁股蛋蛋呀。这么多中国元素，但不知道能不能在中国院线上映……杨紫琼总是被请来演这种扫地僧角色，会不会觉得很烦？
Otto不要太可爱，简直就是一个大土豆，以及团宠的小Bob。
中国元素很足，中国新年、中国功夫、十二生肖等等，一群小黄人可可爱爱萌化了，最后那个🐥小鸡儿小小黄人在神偷奶爸里面并没有出现过。
怎么这么可爱😭😭😭😭😭😭
中国元素超标，想赚钱的姿态算是摆正了吧。故事普通，但是小黄人太可爱了！！
吵吵闹闹儿童片。挺搞笑的。有很多中国元素。
中国元素最多的一部“神偷奶爸”电影，环球为了讨好中国观众真是煞费苦心，无论是宝石的十二生肖，还是大隐隐于市的唐人街功夫高手按摩老太太，都会让中国观众感受到友好和亲切，至于故事本身，则是盗宝寻宝的老套路子，但好在细节上把小黄人大眼萌的魅力发挥到了极致，所以还是一部合格的合家欢动画片。只是这个系列故事新鲜感的每况愈下让人担忧，不会只能靠小黄人大眼萌卖萌一直支撑下去吧？
Lucy lawless 你大概就说了四句话吧😅
预告片一分多钟笑死我了。好期待。预告即精华吧…全片一般…部分片段搞笑。
7分，短小精悍，全程卖萌，中国元素，热热闹闹，孩子还是会喜欢的。
经典IP中，能看到越来越多的中国风元素加入，好事呀
中式元素都舔成这样了，但是什么都不懂就胡乱堆砌，邪典味都搞出来了。。（一粉顶十黑？）
中华元素满满，小黄人这么正能量这么萌还不够好吗
这各个地方出现过的各种配乐搞得我有点穿越了…
