TIME Staff TIME Magazine 09/10/2020
Old-fashioned as a hair sofa is this movie carved from a Harold Bell Wright best seller. Dully, the story preaches the value of turning the other cheek, the ex-minister here involved turning his with the monotony of a metronome. Go to Full Review Age Staff The Age (Australia) 09/10/2020
The part of the shepherd is well played by Alec B. Francis, and Molly O'Day is the heroine. There are some fine outback scenes in the picture. Go to Full Review Mordaunt Hall New York Times 09/10/2020
It has some sterling features, notably a strikingly good performance by Alec B. Francis in a role that might easily have been played so that it would either have been absurd or lost its whole effect. Go to Full Review Shadow Stage Photoplay 09/10/2020
The types from the Shepherd of Alec Francis to the Sammy Lane of Molly O'Day are played sincerely, yet the total result is somewhat slow. Go to Full Review Martin Dickstein Brooklyn Daily Eagle 09/10/2020
The piece has been indifferently directed by Al Rogell, who has, it appears, followed the original novel all too faithfully to cause The Shepherd of the Hills to be anything but a picture play of distinction. Go to Full Review Laurence Reid Motion Picture News 09/10/2020
