A mediocre film might be excused somewhat by the merit of some ambition, but the problem with "Old Henry" is that there isn't enough of that, either.

Trace Sauveur

Austin Chronicle

As it stands, there's a healthy amount to admire and for some it may be enough to scratch a certain itch. But much of Old Henry feels a lot like its protagonist: worn-out, weathered, and old.

Rated: 2.5/5

Built with the patience of a goldsmith, the story is dry, as economical as his characters, and direct: a tough nut to crack for eager viewers. [Full review in Spanish]

This really is a must see modern western. It’s simple and relatively low budget yet very entertaining and ticks all the boxes of a great western. There is a great surprise twist as well to top it all off. Don’t miss..

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
