Hall's bleak vision, his gift for working with darkness and rain, rivals classic film noir of the 1940s and '50s in its visual mastery.
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
Fresh
Excellent quasidocumentary, which sends shivers down the spine while moving the viewer to ponder.
Bosley Crowther, New York Times
Fresh
Brooks' great achievement in the film is to portray Smith and Hickock as the unexceptional, dim-witted, morally adrift losers they were.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Rotten
An uneasy mixture of facile Freudianism and 40s expressionism.
Don Druker, Chicago Reader
