- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Though hardly Nicholas Ray's sturdiest effort, this 1957 'Scope western began as one of his more ambitious conceptions, with an unorthodox narrative structure and deliberately theatrical sets."
-
"On celluloid Jesse James has had more lives than a cat, and 'The True Story of Jesse James' suggests it's time screenwriters let him roll over and play dead for real and reel."
-
"Ray's pacing builds some good excitement, and as a western alone the film works nicely. But there are deeper things going on, some not entirely and successfully worked out."
-
"A fine Western, the only regret being Robert Wagner. Imagining Dean in the central role makes it one of the great might-have-beens."
