Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
A portrait of storytelling made for and by the Silent Generation, an audience all too familiar with the world's spooky, white-knuckled moral twilight.

rotten:
That the climax fizzles must be laid on doorstep of Halsted Welles, who adapts Elmore Leonard's story quite well until that point.

This is a first-rate action picture -- a respectable second section to High Noon.

fresh:
It's of necessity a talkative film, with Ford working on Heflin's nerves in a stream of Machiavellian banter, but one held in perfect balance by Daves, who keeps the tension strung taut.

Despite an abundance of talk, this 1957 film is often considered [Daves'] best.
