Chicago Tribune -
Far and Away, a mildly old-fashioned romantic melodrama that has as many charming moments as embarrassing ones. Much of the charm is supplied by the earnest performances of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. [22 May 1992]

Time -
Somehow it works, in part because of the way director Howard keeps his crowded frames abustle with activity, in part because of the sheer indomitability with which his leading characters are endowed by the actors and by writer Dolman, but mostly because the movie takes enlivening chances with its material.

Rolling Stone -
Even at its hokiest, Far and Away is never less than heartfelt.

Chicago Reader -
Sometimes it's hard to tell what's mere overreaching and what's nostalgia for Hollywood's former grandiloquence.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Far and Away is a movie that joins astonishing visual splendor with a story so simple-minded it seems intended for adolescents.
