Reaction: While the box office gross was close to the same as the previous film in the series, the profits were much lower this time around due to fewer home video sales, as well as the main leading cast (Rudd, Cusack, Galifinakis, Day, Dinklage) now getting a percentage of the profits as part of their contract.
"Things get decidedly darker in this third entry of the Lucky Luke series, but it is still probably funnier than the second entry that I didn't much care for." - Michael Van Patten, Slant Magazine
"The switch in directors suggests that the series is trying to get more mainstream, but the already only sporadically funny series doesn't get an funnier." - Stephen Anderson, Entertainment Weekly
"Logan Lerman as Billy the Kid is able in inject enough new blood into the film to keep things interesting and keep the other characters on their toes." - Brian Edelstein, Time Out
