Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by John StanleyHondo is a mash of the usual tropes, a whirlwind of Native American war paint, cavalry stripes, a sawdust-saloon poker game, a few fistfights, plenty of gunfire, and every moral equation coming to a satisfactory balance by the time the credits roll.
Groucho Reviews - 8/10 by Peter CanaveseStands out as one of Wayne's best-remembered features, a smooth Western co-produced by Wayne and shot at the tail end of the '50s 3-D craze. [Blu-ray]
Movie Metropolis - 7/10 by John J. Puccio...an intelligent yet thrilling film, long on talk but with sufficient derring-do to satisfy most fans of the Western genre.
Combustible Celluloid - 6/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonAside from the films of Howard Hawks and John Ford, this is arguably John Wayne's best and most beloved Western
EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevyDirected by John Farrow in 3-D, this Western resembles George Stevens' Shane (released few months earlier), based on the premise that to become a real man every boy needs a father (biological or surrogate); the film marks Geraldine Page's screen debut
User Review - 10/10 by Ana LGreat performance by John Wayne and shows sympathy for the indians who were losing the battle for their way of life.
