Critic Reviews
-
Bosley Crowther, New York Times
Mr. Cagney's performance, as usual, is cocky and colorful without a great deal of substance or strenuous sincerity.
-
Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
Cagney tried to revive gis career with this offbeat, moody but not great Western directed by Nicholas Ray, who imabues the film with signature themes and visuals.
-
, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Cagney was about 56 when he made this interesting western. He was a bit long in the tooth, but his vitality showed through his wrinkles and the result was a pleasing picture.
-
Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Ray's sensitive handling of actors and his exact compositional sense are as much in evidence as ever.
-
, Film4
An intriguing low-key western.
