That implacable moral balance, in which good eventually silences evil, is at the heart of the Western, and Eastwood is not shy about saying so.

Eastwood has cast his lot with one of the finest screenplays to have come along in many years, and the result stands him, unembarrassed, in the company of greatness.

In three decades of climbing into the saddle, Eastwood has never ridden so tall.

Top CriticAside from being one of the highlights of Eastwood's long career, this film unquestionably offers one of his top directing efforts.
