Movie Reviews

Washington Post - 9/10 by Ann HornadayHas Blanchett and Jones to its credit. To watch them is to take in two of the screen's greatest natural wonders.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranThe combined intensity of these two performances (Jones and Blanchett) obliterates objections and raises the stakes in what might otherwise have been a standard western.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonGood movie westerns these days may be too few and far between, but Ron Howard's The Missing is almost a great one.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenRon Howard has delivered a movie that’s a big departure from his previous film, "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas." We may not remember him for "The Alamo," but we're glad he kept the Stetson.
Time - 8/10 by Richard SchickelAs for Blanchett, she's simply wonderful. She has played her share of queenly figures, but her acting essence is, emotionally speaking, plain-Jane. She's a straight shooter, with an uncanny ability to find a character's spine and communicate it without fuss or feathers.
Empire - 8/10 by Kim NewmanProbably the best Western since "Unforgiven."
Premiere - 8/10 by Sara BradyHoward’s inclination toward graphic, gruesome violence, reminiscent of Ransom’s grisly denouement, The Missing is, at its core, a story well-told and built upon the solid foundation of Blanchett’s supremely capable performance.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliDoes not surpass Kevin Costner's "Open Range" for the title of Best Western of 2003, but it's a worthy effort and makes for an enjoyable (if slightly overlong) two-plus hours.
USA Today - 8/10 by Mike ClarkThis movie will remind a lot of people of John Ford's masterpiece, "The Searchers," without the rowdy humor and, yes, without the greatness. But it's an admirably solid effort that's as mean as it has to be, which is plenty.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Steven ReaJust misses being great. The dark shaman mysticism doesn't entirely mesh with the earthbound quest across the wild and glorious Southwest. And the ending, with its shoot-outs and sacrifices, has a choppy, unneccessarily complicated feel.
