Patrick WillemsApr 28, 2024“I reckon so...” A Southern farmer’s wife and son are murdered and his home burned by Northern soldiers during the outbreak of the American Civil War. With nothing left to live for, he takes up arms in a doomed cause against those who took everything from him. When finally…

The Civil War is the American Iliad, and this movie is Clint's Aeneid, where a defeated hero flees the ruins of his Troy to found a new Rome in Texas. I think the key to this movie is in the scene early on where the guy who runs a ferry, sings Dixie going one way across…
Will MenakerMay 7, 2015Deeply flawed in some ways, perhaps as a reflection of Eastwood's own uncertainty over subverting his screen persona, but still ultimately a very beautiful film. Probably Eastwood's most overtly Ford-inspired work; the film constantly nods towards Stagecoach & The…
Neil BahadurNov 27, 2020The Outlaw Josey Wales wasn't Eastwood's first great movie as a director, but it was clearly a leap of ambition. It was made for the American bicentennial and loaded with Fordian images and a clear desire to serve as state of fractured nation address. It is taken by notions…

this is the exact moment where clint goes from being yet another actor directing his own films to being one of the great masters of the form -- every single element on screen is woven together with an overwhelming climate of rugged unfussy naturalism -- rifles are tangled…
comrade_yuiJun 12, 2025Get the Warner 4K. It's extraordinary.
carrieandtracyMay 17, 2021“The Outlaw Josey Whales” sees director Clint Eastwood cast himself as the gruff and vengeful dad for the lost boys of the West. “Josey’s” plot setup is something like a “Mad Max: Fury Road” of the frontier. A father watches his entire family murdered before his eyes, and…

- James New likedThe Outlaw Josey Wales
I think this is the first film directed by Clint Eastwood that I have seen. Epic story that allows you to pass the time with the characters & grow with them. Very good performances, & very good stunts & fight scenes. Just wish it would tone down on the saliva and animal cruelty
Gregg Puluka lovedThe Outlaw Josey WalesOne of the best of the westerns with Clint Eastwood! Watched more times than I can count. Is a must see western that without a doubt formed my ideas of morality. That identity doesn’t necessarily mean that you are morally right. That morality is what you personally do.
Orlando Ramone likedThe Outlaw Josey WalesThis is one of my favorite Westerns. A simple story of revenge with interesting characters, my favorite being Chief Dan George’s.
- Edward Kronkvist likedThe Outlaw Josey Wales

Metacritic
Clint Eastwood's The Outlaw Josey Wales is a strange and daring Western that brings together two of the genre's usually incompatible story lines. On the one hand, it's about a loner, a man of action and few words, who turns his back on civilization and lights out for the Indian nations. On the other hand, it's about a group of people heading West who meet along the trail and cast their destinies together. What happens next is supposed to be against the rules in Westerns, as if Jeremiah Johnson were crossed with Stagecoach: Eastwood, the loner, becomes the group's leader and father figure.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
A truly great Western from Clint that is bleakly atmospheric and charming in turns.
