| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanThe first few brief sequences in Nicholas Ray's rip-roaring rodeo flick tell us visually almost everything that we need to know about the director's interest in this story. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyRay's last b/w film captures the life of rodeo players with vivid details, lyrical images, and melnacholy mood, centering on a romantic triangle, well played by Arthur Kennedy, Susan Hayward, and especially Robert Mitchum as the aging champ. |
| Out of the PastRaquel StecherBeautifully shot... plenty of symbolic imagery. |
| CinePassionFernando F. CroceA key American vision, with Ray's sense of failure and transience and grace pulled together into Mitchum's wink of soulful nonchalance |

| VarietyVariety StaffA somewhat slow starter, once underway it is kept playing with growing interest under Nicholas Ray's firm direction. |
| User ReviewAnna LThat's Nicholas Ray material right there. |
