LA Weekly Ella Taylor

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.

The Hollywood Reporter Stephen Farber

While the three actresses have an appealing grittiness, they aren't always up to the demands of the roles.

Los Angeles Times Mark Olsen

Unengaging and uninspired and that leaves far too much unexplored.

Variety Joe Leydon

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.

I liked it a lot and think you are all being a bit to harsh on it. Yes there were some production flaws but I thought the characters got it right.

andy o gave it a0:
The acting in this movie sucked so bad I felt emberrased watching this movie. The lines sounded like they were being read from story boards off set. The story was predictable. If you want to watch a movie to see just how bad one can be, this is the one.

Sheila G gave it a0:
If there were negative points available for ratings of movies, this one would be at least a negative 10.

Steve L. gave it a1:
Quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. Poor acting, bad dialogue, and a terrible plot.

G R gave it a3:
Roger Corman-esque dialogue & board-stiff performances can't overcome the fantastic locations in this low budget Western. 3 widows can't decide between running or fighting, all while they're on the run & fighting! B+ for effort, A+ for the beautiful New Mexico locale, but the acting & dialogue really made me squirm.
