Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Hawks makes a familiar plot resound strangely with a new set of sexual overtones.

fresh:
Howard Hawks is too good a director to depend upon stereotyped violence to keep the interest of the audience, and his well-made scenes between Wayne, Mitchum, Arthur Hunicutt and James Cann never lag for a moment.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
26 Jul 2006
fresh:
An excellent oater drama, laced with adroit comedy and action relief, and set off by strong casting, superior direction and solid production.
