Unforgiven is a different western movie, with a original story, great plot and some superb acting preformances. Clint Eastwood is one of the western movies greatest stars. He is allso a verry good director, but certanly not a Sergio Leone. Leones...

[+] Los Angeles Times

100

Simultaneously heroic and nihilistic, reeking of myth but modern as they come, it is a Western for those who know and chrish the form, a film that resonates with the spirit of films past while staking out a territory quite its own. [7 Aug 1992]

[+] Variety

100

Clint Eastwood has crafted a tense, hard-edged, superbly dramatic yarn that is also an exceedingly intelligent meditation on the West, its myths and its heroes.

[+] Chicago Tribune

100

This dark, melancholic film is a reminder -- never more necessary than now -- of what the American cinema is capable of, in the way of expressing a mature, morally complex and challenging view of the world. [7 Aug 1992]

[+] Time

100

Unforgiven questions the rules of a macho genre, summing up and maybe atoning for the flinty violence that made Eastwood famous. [10 Aug 1992]
by Richard Corliss | Read Full Review »
[+] Austin Chronicle

100

But in the genre, as both a movie and a conscious addition to the ongoing celluloid Western mythology, the film is a masterpiece, a stunning and awe-inspiring statement.

[+] The New Yorker

100

Under its leathery hide is a genuine compulsion to de-romanticize Western gunfighting. Every bullet in this movie matters, and by the end Munny's alcohol-fuelled, satanic purposefulness is shocking: in the climax, even his choice of victims has a crazy excess. [10 Aug 1992, p.70]

100

It's powerful entertainment. [22 Sept 1992, p.A16(E)]

[+] Rolling Stone

90

Unforgiven is the most provocative western of Eastwood's career, and with Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris along for the ride, it's also the most potently acted.
by Peter Travers | Read Full Review »
[+] Washington Post

90

Exults in the hard-riding romanticism of classic Westerns, but it takes revisionist stock too. It dismounts at places usually left in the dust -- the oppressed lot of women, the loneliness of untended children, adult illiteracy and the horrible last moments of the dying.
by Desson Thomson | Read Full Review »
[+] TV Guide

90

The cast is universally strong. Hackman, Freeman and Harris don't do anything they haven't done before, but the roles suit their personae to a degree where they approach archetypal status.

It's the actor/director's best movie - and the best Western by anybody in over 20 years. [7 Aug 1992]

If Unforgiven occasionally overstates its case, this is the best work Eastwood has done as a director since The Outlaw Josey Wales 16 years ago.
by John Hartl | Read Full Review »
[+] The New York Times

80

Unforgiven... never quite fulfills the expectations it so carefully sets up. It doesn't exactly deny them, but the bloody confrontations that end the film appear to be purposely muted, more effective theoretically than dramatically.
by Vincent Canby | Read Full Review »
[+] Empire

It is the last great Western ever made, and it will always remain so.
by Rob Fraser | Read Full Review »
[+] The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

75

Each character in David Webb Peoples' dense, unexpectedly stately, non- violent script (the inevitable gore is employed sparingly) is treated with that same, somewhat distanced clarity.
