Austin Chronicle - Marc Savlov
You’ve heard of guerrilla warfare? Buffalo Soldiers is all about guerilla capitalism.
75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
The film is filled with spot-on performances, by Harris, Glenn, Phoenix, and by Paquin, who has grown up after her debut in "The Piano" to become one of the most gifted actresses of her generation--particularly in tricky, emotion-straddling roles like this one.
70
Film Threat - Unnamed
The script’s extremely well written, the direction flawless, and the performances -- especially by the fantastic Joaquin Phoenix, gobsmacking.
67
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Paula Nechak
In some ways it suffers from the same unredemptive afflictions as Elwood and his gang: It's a bit flaccid and flabby and lumbers gracelessly along without self awareness or humanity.
60
Village Voice - J. Hoberman
In its post-Vietnam cynicism, Buffalo Soldiers feels almost avant-garde.
