The Guardian -
It's an allegory about the Vietnam war, a study of American character and a national propensity for violence. Southern Comfort is a masterpiece.

The Dissolve -
Beyond its genre roots and its deeper meanings, Southern Comfort is a well-honed study of characters and setting.

Empire -
A war film without the war but with some interesting observations nonetheless.

Chicago Reader -
Stripping these characters to their essences, Hill identifies a shared culture of hatred that unites a range of Americans.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Southern Comfort is a film of drum-tight professionalism. It is also, unfortunately, so committed to its allegorical vision that it never really comes alive as a story about people.
