Just about everything in this movie has its antecedent: a little bit of Shane here, a chunk of High Noon there, and so on. And yet it's all rather pleasing, in a regressive sort of way.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A flawed but highly entertaining B Western blown up to John Ford scale.
The casting of this film may be its greatest asset: Duvall and Costner have the easy familiarity of longtime partners.
Charley's crusty assessment of events -- 'Nothing that's been happening in this town is much of a surprise' -- is all too knowingly accurate.
A movie that seeks no higher calling than to entertain us the way Hollywood used to.
