Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The Eastwood team has pulled off a modest enjoyable winner.
Cimino was already making an aesthetic of inarticulateness, and the film is by turns surly, incoherent, and provocatively mysterious.
The likeable result, made for and with the personnel of Eastwood's Malpaso Company, looks like a throwaway Eastwood vehicle.
