Reaction: Outlaw Country has become one of the most successful westerns yet for the studio - becoming the most profitable western not part of the Lucky Luke series.


"The charismatic young stars (Hedlund, Kitsch, Paul, Johnson) help carry this film beyond its formulaic premise with their energy and chemistry. Going up against them is a scenery-chewing Jude Law, clearly having a good time in this villainous role." - Michael Van Patten, Slant Magazine


"The cast is a bit too bland and the story is a bit too old-fashioned. Compared to recent westerns like Cascade and Ranger, Outlaw Country just feels too safe and simple." - Matt Carson, Arizona Republic


"The legend of Jesse James and his ragtag gang of outlaws has captured imaginations for over 100 years now. David Michod does great work capturing the fun generations have had with these characters." - George Ryan, Philadelphia Inquirer
