One of the best westerns of the 70s, if not all time.
October 23, 2004
It's a movie that exists almost entirely on one note -- a low, melancholy one -- and achieves what I thought would have been impossible for him Peckinpah: he's boring.
August 10, 2015
Peckinpah's final word on a genre he helped define, and the greatest movie you almost never got a chance to see.
February 23, 2006
A richer, more rewarding experience.
September 10, 2010
Regardless of length, this is one of Peckinpah's most deeply-felt films, a true meeting of two like souls.
November 19, 2006
...it could've %u2014 should've %u2014 been [Peckinpah's] third or fourth masterpiece (that depends on who's doing the counting), and the movie he'd been building towards his entire career.
August 30, 2006
The film is visually stunning, and Peckinpah makes great use of his Durango, Mexico, locations.
December 03, 2007
One of the most bittersweet films of Peckinpah's career.
April 04, 2008
Bitter take take on the mythical Old West.
March 10, 2003
Some Peckinpah devotees consider the film among his finest work, others regard it as, well, troubled. Fascinating, nonetheless.
May 09, 2005
The mushy pretensions of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid suggest either that [Peckinpah] has begun to take talk about his genius too seriously (it can happen to the best) or that he has fallen in with bad company.
August 09, 2008
It's one of the great tragic true stories of the old wild West, the story of two outlaw friends ending up enemies as one turns over and becomes a lawman - expressly for the purpose of hunting down his friend.
