Wind River ultimately aims to be an existential survival movie, but that aim is rarely true.

Sheridan ends his story brilliantly, the last ten minutes a startling display of emotional elasticity that left me flabbergasted.

Most of the dialogue would look good on a series of commemorative tea towels. It certainly doesn't belong on the lips of an actor as gifted as Renner.

Wind River is a well crafted, but straightforward, thriller with an interesting setting and social context.
