Reviews

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
The strengths and foibles of human beings are what this film--and all of Eastwood's directorial efforts--is all about, and his Tom Highway is one of the most vividly etched male characters seen onscreen in years.
75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Heartbreak Ridge has as much energy and color as any action picture this year, and it contains truly amazing dialogue.
70
Time Out - Unnamed
In format, this is no more than the classic mission movie: first they train, then they do it for real. But the film belongs to Eastwood.

Variety - Unnamed
Heartbreak Ridge offers another vintage Clint Eastwood performance. There are enough mumbled half-liners in this contemporary war pic to satisfy those die-hards eager to see just how he portrays the consummate marine veteran.
60
The New York Times - Vincent Canby
As the gritty, raspy-voiced sergeant, Mr. Eastwood's performance is one of the richest he's ever given. It's funny, laid-back, seemingly effortless, the sort that separates actors who are run-of-the-mill from those who have earned the right to be identified as stars.
