This story, parboiled out of one of the most memorable Westerns, is supported all the way by Gil's directing.
Stanley Kauffmann, The New Republic

Shepard's crusty charisma gives this dignified genre effort its pulse: a growl-off between his Butch and Jeff Bridges's Rooster Cogburn is surely the next chapter.
Guy Lodge, Time Out

It ain't Paul Newman and Robert Redford, but it ain't bad.
Tom Long, Detroit News

In place of a rousing adventure, "Blackthorn" is a haunting ode.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Rotten
Although Shepard is perfectly cast as a world-weary outlaw reluctantly drawn into one more adventure, the movie doesn't quite justify the resuscitation of classic film characters for another outing.
