Reviews


63
Boston Globe - Jay Carr
At least hits a certain adrenaline level, and the stunts have panache. If you crave the ''Young Guns'' approach to the Old West, here it is again.
50
Baltimore Sun - Chris Kaltenbach
It's a sad day for film lovers when the best thing that can be said about a Western is that it's pleasant.
50
Charlotte Observer - Lawrence Toppman
The best work comes from Timothy Dalton as the grizzled, Scots-accented head of the Pinkertons.
30
New Times (L.A.) - Luke Y. Thompson
So desperate are the filmmakers to create a "hip" western that they try to cram it with action sequences that aren't very exciting.
25
San Francisco Chronicle - Wesley Morris
This plot leaves ample room for viewers to sweat the small stuff, like whether Trevor Nunn's score is more Marines ad or deodorant commercial.
