Whatever elements of suspense, action and motivation the Louis Bromfield book, McLeod's Folly, may have held to attract the Cagney production staff, the screen treatment which has emerged is, for the most part, familiar melodrama.

Rating: 2/5 --
It's pleasant enough, and the period sets and costumes are quite authentic, but it never catches fire.

TV Guide
The acting, direction, dialogue and photography for the most part are unpolished.

The Spectator
A good film and a fine introduction to Cagney's otherwise explosive oeuvre.

Following Yankee Doodle Dandy, it hurts to see Mr. Cagney wasting his excellent talent on such a curiously second-rate film.

Rating: 3/5 --
A strong performance from James Cagney and a fine supporting cast lift this otherwise unexceptional newspaper picture.

Radio Times
These pleasures would have been all but impossible to manufacture in any of the large studios, for they are given their warmth and life by the pleasure that the Cagneys' large cast and the whole production outfit [took in the film].
