It's all but impossible to add anything new or fresh to the traditional Western, but -- thanks in no small part to Mads Mikkelson's performance -- The Salvation comes close.

In an untamed world where hypocrisy is loud and where no one can be trusted, salvation is one's own business and actions speak louder than words. April 24, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

It's the detail -- the fly on the dead man's face and all those close-ups of characters' stirruped boots clanking on wooden floors -- that makes The Salvation so enjoyable. April 16, 2015 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The Salvation is of that rare genre: the Danish western, starring the always-magnificent Mads Mikkelsen as Jon, a Nordic settler in the (extremely) Wild West of America in 1871. April 16, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's worth watching on mute and on repeat for the cinematography alone. May 31, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Though it talks loftily of Westward expansion and the pioneer spirit, it is in essence a picture in thrall to the masters of pulp; from the combustible Spaghetti Westerns of Sergio Leone to the unfussy American grit of Walter Hill. April 4, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

There may be great ugliness lurking inside the soul of every man walking around in "The Salvation," but Levring brings it out beautifully. November 15, 2018 | Full Review…

An excellent entertainment that revels in Western movie cliches, its social commentary subtle and maybe a little subversive. August 28, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It could be Danish filmmaker Kristian Levring's answer to the spaghetti western (this one shot in South Africa with American landscapes CGIed into the background) with a sensibility that echoes the savage frontier novels of Cormac McCarthy. March 9, 2017 | Full Review…
