Reviews

The A.V. Club - Unnamed
With solid, stately acting, and landscapes that could convert atheists, The Horse Whisperer tugs heartstrings without seeming self-conscious.
88
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
A film as rich in its visual presentation as it is in its emotional resonance.
75
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
All the nuggets of spoken wisdom rattle around with a tad too much space and (at 2 1/2 hours plus) too much length.
60
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan
Robert Redford, who for the first time stars in a movie he's also directed, has taken this soap opera material and treated it like something inscribed on yak vellum by the Dalai Lama.

Chicago Reader - Jonathan Rosenbaum
There are times when this leisurely movie seems so much in love with its own virtue and nobility that there's not much room left for the spectator.
