an aimless Western [with] woefully underdeveloped characters Go to Full Review Jesús Fernández Santos El Pais (Spain) 08/13/2019
The movie seems to keep violence at a distance and at the same time, it involves viewers in brilliant and energetic scenes. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews 04/12/2007

Lanfranco C @Lanfrancobz Oct 7 Slow and sad, but it catches the character of Tom Horn. See more Kim P @RT98672688 Sep 20 The love scenes were clunky and awkwardly edited as flashbacks, but the wording in the script was imaginative and unique and McQueen was stoic and understated in his portrayal. See more Franky L @kungfugrandma 01/08/2024 This was an accurate depiction of the incidents surrounding the conviction and hanging of Tom Horn. This movie was beautifully shot, with the Wyoming landscape and mountains. The event occurred during the Johnson County war, and is a critical part of US history. Although the movie was slow at times, it had a solid performance by Steve McQueen and the rest of the cast. A good Sunday Western.
