Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 08/14/2015
[A] sluggish post-Civil War drama directed and co-written by Kane Senes that wears its shopworn ideas too heavily on its sleeve. Go to Full Review Peter Sobczynski RogerEbert.com 05/15/2015
1.5/4
A giant bore that presents viewers with the most familiar plot devices imaginable but fails to present them in a way that makes them worth sitting through once again. Go to Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times 05/14/2015
The somber period western "Echoes of War" retraces some well-traveled moral ground but is invigorated by a cast that includes James Badge Dale, Ethan Embry and William Forsythe. Go to Full Review Kristian M. Lin Fort Worth Weekly 08/14/2015
This tale of the futility of revenge works well enough on its own modest terms. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 05/26/2015

jelisije j 01/08/2020 This movie is a slow burn, but a well acted film. Its worth a watch just don't expect an action movie like their trailer was hinting at. See more 11/09/2016 good period pic /western See more 07/03/2016 un western terne sur la religion poussé à bout avec la non violence devenant lâcheté. See more 07/02/2016 The movie boosts some interesting ideas and ok performances but the movie was a note for 3/4 of it with bad pacing. Things get better in the end and I see what this movie wanted to do. It just needed a better director and script writer. See more 05/20/2015 A dark and tense drama that feels as authentic as it does poetic. See more 04/29/2015 Had potential but fell flat on some areas, good movie overall. See more Read all reviews
