Mike J. @MikeJN2022 Jun 11 Vastly overrated. Probably considered great in 1956, but doesn't hold up well 70 years later. See more Christian K @ckacar Jun 1 Would love to see a nicer print of this, the technicolor landscape was incredible. While it remains a typical western setup, it is much more focused on Wayne's character as being problematic and in the wrong than the other famous films of the era and genre. See more Mark U. @UKE11 Apr 17 Bad acting. Dumb story line. So many better Westerns. John Wayne’s son is atrocious. Natalie Wood is an afterthought. The guy who played the priest in the quiet man literally uses the same line. “what in the Sam Hill”. Ridiculous See more Al A @RT36830200 Apr 7 Truly one of the best movies every made, and even more compelling as the years pass. A complex study of the human condition that doesn't conform to convention. Hollywood could never make this movie in 2026 without polluting it with agenda and virtue signaling. See more Steve S @SLS315 Mar 18 Maybe this was a great movie in its time, but watching it in 2026, I thought it was ridiculous. In the blink of an eye, the John Wayne character changes from trying to shoot the girl to saving her. The Rangers ride into the Indians' camp, and all the rifle-shooting Indians miss. The high-strung kid does nothing but shout and chew the scenery. Wayne totally recovers from a poison arrow in record time. I could go on, but you get the picture. Why anyone would consider this the greatest western of all time is beyond my understanding. I'd say it's a mildly entertaining period piece.
