RTNew York TimesJan 9, 2018

Saddled with a pretentious and senseless screenplay about Billy the Kid, this lame oater drags all parties down with it.

N

Nick Pinkerton

RTVillage VoiceNov 12, 2008

Penn's training in theater and live-TV drama (e.g. Playhouse 90) shows; the central performance is rehearsed into an anxious stir, every line matched to an actorly decision, a blocking cue.

The picture is a smart and exciting western paced by Paul Newman's intense portrayal.

Moira Walsh

RTThe Catholic WorldNov 29, 2023

It is as fundamentally unsatisfactory a film as was ever made by people with talent and serious intent.
