It was OK at best! I wouldn’t say don’t go see it but if I went to the 1 dollar theater I’d wait for it there! Not a must see at all!

i was really rooting for this movie in the beginning but very slow and some bad acting and unrealistic on a few scenes from the 2 primary stars which is unfortunate. unnecessary scenes that took away from the main story.

It can be cute, playful and romantic, then turn dishearteningly violent as it serves up a generous sampling of what life on the untamed frontier could be like. It’s also frustrating in its lapses in logic, its cumbersome, shuffled and dream-infused structure.

Despite some pacing issues and the fact it leans a little to heavily on extended visual longeurs, this is a fine second feature from Mortensen.

That nonlinear narrative choice in an otherwise understated art-house Western serves to confuse more than it reveals, complicating things for the meat-and-potatoes crowd that regularly turn out for cowboy stories.
