Entertainment Reviews:
[T]he story's twists and emphases are often unexpected, and the shape of the narrative overall fits no genre template.

Rating: 3/5 --
When it works, beautiful and bestial.

One Room With A View
Rating: 2/5 --
While it may afford us with a rare perspective of women's experiences in such a time and place, the film's narrative manages to appear misogynistic even as it appears to be developing an argument for agency.

While maintaining a very obvious respect for the genre, the film is terribly current for several reasons. [Full Review in Spanish]

Behind The Lens
Swank and Jones, in particular, are a very good odd couple, playing saint and sinner, sometimes reversing the roles.
Los Angeles Times
Product Description:
A strong-willed woman recruits a loathsome drifter to help transport three insane women across the unforgiving Nebraska Territories so that they may find sanctuary with a compassionate minister and his wife in this drama directed and co-written by Tommy Lee Jones. Driven to madness by the harsh realities of pioneer life, three women (Grace Gummer, Miranda Otto, and Sonja Richter) living on the outskirts of the American frontier are rescued from certain death by pious Mary Bee Cuddy (Hilary Swank), who selflessly takes on the task of transporting them to safety. Along the way, Mary Bee encounters a low-life named George Briggs (Tommy Lee Jones) with his head in a noose. In exchange for helping her transport the women, Mary Bee frees the scruffy stranger, and together the group heads east. In the course of their arduous journey, however, they will encounter ruthless bandits and vengeful Native Americans. Meanwhile, the greatest test to their resolve may be the harsh winter that's blowing in fast. Meryl Streep, John Lithgow, Hailee Steinfeld, William Fichtner, Tim Blake Nelson, and James Spader co-star.
