CRITICS OF "The Searchers"

A truly great western.

September 16, 2007

Time Out

There is perhaps some discrepancy in the play between Wayne's heroic image and the pathological outsider he plays here (forever excluded from home, as the doorway shots at beginning and end suggest), but it hardly matters, given the film's visual splendou

City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul

Call Ethan one widescreen reminder of fear and guilt for a country that deserved at least one.

Cinema Sight

One of the better examples of the western genre.

An absolute must see.

Film4

A mature, dark, ambivalent piece that helped pave the way for the modern western.

Empire Magazine

John Wayne at his best, striking cinematography and character ambiguity makes this a powerful and thought-provoking Wild West Odyssey.

The final shot of this genuine epic says everything the Western ever had to say about the price of the American frontier and those forgotten bones upon which a nation was built.

January 01, 2000

Variety

Some fine vignettes of frontier life in the early southwest and a realistic presentation of the difficulties faced by the settlers in carving out a homestead in dangerous Indian country.

New York Times

A rip-snorting Western, as brashly entertaining as they come.

May 20, 2003

Chicago Sun-Times

Contains scenes of magnificence, and one of John Wayne's best performances.
