Butcher's Crossing

"Unfocused, distant, and flat."

"The film doesn’t really know what it is or who it’s for."

"The film’s greatest flaws are in Cage’s shakily written character."

"Blistering and brutally effective."

"A thematically ambitious Western that could’ve used a little more energy."

"The picture struggles to find fresh insights about its thematic concerns."

"There is a conspicuous dearth of genuine suspense."

"If some of it works, it’s because Cage is such a magnetic figure."

"Solidly made, but lacking spark."

"Oddly bloated."
