Entertainment Reviews:
A Western-as-capitalist-critique piece shanghaied by Marlon Brando's eccentric bounty hunter trying on brogues, mumus, and buckskin Nudie suits.

Village Voice
Enjoyable, if forgettable, New Hollywood shtick.

Chicago Reader
[T]he film is made memorable by a wildly eccentric turn from the late Marlon Brando...
Sight and Sound
[A] smouldering anti-western....The action is rationed into short, ferocious bursts and used as a counterpoint to the director's paced dissection of power and politics on the anarchic frontier.
Uncut
Rating: 79/100 --
... worth seeing if only for the madness of Marlon Brando ... it's not hard to see why some charge him with sabotaging the film with a genuinely bizarre performance
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Rating: 3/4 --
If Penn failed to ride herd on his two superstars, he still was able to wrangle some sharp observations on the clash between the mythic old West and its reality

Boulder Weekly
Although the general western flavor of the film seems all right, an air of pastiche is never far off, as if this were really a western made not by Arthur Penn but by Monty Python's Flying Circus.
