Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Kevin ThomasThe second film in John Ford's "Cavalry Trilogy" features John Wayne at his best and boasts some incredible, Oscar-winning Technicolor photography of Monument Valley.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 10/10 by Tim BraytonFirst and most obviously one of the most flat-out gorgeous movies ever filmed.
Variety - 10/10 by Variety StaffA western meller done in the best John Ford manner.
Movie Metropolis - 9/10 by John J. Puccio...a lot of people's favorite Western, and it's good to see it in all its Technicolor glory on DVD.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Dave KehrIn Ford’s superbly creative hands, it becomes perhaps the only avant-garde film ever made about the importance of tradition.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyThe second of John Ford's cavalry trilogy is well acted by John Wayne and well shot by Winton C. Hoch, who an Oscar for color cinematography.
The Observer (UK) - 9/10 by Keith PhippsFort Apache and She Wore A Yellow Ribbon both dwell on the problems of leadership, balancing out a respect for classic American frontier virtues with a less generous assessment of how those virtues were applied.
Creative Loafing - 8/10 by Matt BrunsonThis earned an Oscar for Best Cinematography, though had a Best Makeup award existed back then, surely Don Cash would have been a contender for superb work that allowed a then-41-year-old Wayne to convincingly pass for someone a quarter-century older.
Time Out - 8/10 by Derek AdamsA film of both elegiac sentiment and occasionally over-eloquent sentimentality.
Video-Reviewmaster.com - 8/10 by Steve CrumDefinitely in top five of all-time Ford/Wayne westerns. Gorgeous color too.
