Lacks individual, distinctive quality

A picture with two distinct halves, like two stories, both dealing with the same leading characters. The first half, a story of adventure in Alaskan mountains in winter, dragged. The second half was much more interesting. This part concerned itself with the two mining partners after their gold mine had been sold. The setting is in civilization. One miner had supposed his partner dead and had sold the claim. The partner hearing of it thought he had been defrauded willfully, but found that he was mistaken. The photographs are poor. The picture is entertaining; but lacks individual, distinctive quality. It is a good filler. - The Moving Picture World, March 23, 1912
