Reception
editLike many American films of the time, Rimrock Jones was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors required cuts, in Reel 1, of two scenes of a Mexican and Jones shooting at each other, the flashing of all roulette scenes, and, in Reel 3, two shooting scenes.[4]
