"No sound lightens a moviegoer’s heart more than pounding hoof beats heard before the opening credits. A western is about to begin, and, if everything goes right, nothing can be better than that. And, in Harris and costar Viggo Mortensen, it has two actors who beautifully play the kind of tough, laconic, unflappable men westerns could not exist without."
Los Angeles Times, Kenneth Turan
