| Los Angeles TimesMartin TsaiA one-dimensional movie painted in painfully broad strokes and whizzing, hurry-scurry action sequences. |
| Village VoiceNick SchagerO'Brien's slow-motion-heavy staging is graceless, and his script is twice as unwieldy. With characters stuffed full of clichéd platitudes about fate, love, honor, and other topics the film isn't capable of addressing in any mature way, it's a fiasco of frontier-wide proportions. |
| User ReviewLanky Man P160227: The artists involved in producing this film should be given credit for doing so well with so little. A unique story that will one day be snatched up by someone with a lot of money. The big dollar re-make will be fantastic but everyone will talk about the original film and how underrated it was. Even though some of the talent may be limited, there are some very cool characters developed here, characters (and actors) I'd love to see again. Louie Sabatasso's Salt Peter would be my highlight. Well done people, well done. |
| User ReviewWizardTimA poker game with higher stakes than just the cash is fine, but the movie takes way to long to get to that, and unfortunately, not every character is interesting enough to sit through the movies run time. |
