Reviews & comments

The New York Times
pressMake no mistake: There is nothing pleasant about James Franco's very fine adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's short, pitiless novel.
The Guardian
pressFranco has finally delivered the goods with this great, grisly McCarthy adaptation.
Hollywood Reporter
pressThere's a weird purity to the storytelling even at its untidiest, which enables Franco to remain true to the spirit of McCarthy's vernacular lyricism.
