Critic Reviews

60	LA Weekly The movie gives every cheerful appearance of having been shot with no time and less money, and it doesn't have much on its mind, unless you count the moral integrity supplied by local Apaches more by way of Mel Brooks than Howard Hawks.
40	The Hollywood Reporter Stephen Farber While the three actresses have an appealing grittiness, they aren't always up to the demands of the roles.
40	Los Angeles Times Mark Olsen Unengaging and uninspired and that leaves far too much unexplored.
30	Variety Far too aggressively seamy (and ferociously foul-mouthed) to please diehard fans of traditional sagebrush sagas, this misfire offers nothing in the way of wit, innovation or even marquee allure to interest auds accustomed to edgier revisionist oaters.
