The film is a rapidfire succession of thrilling moments: the bandits lightning attacks on banks, trains and stagecoaches; their hairbreadth escapes from the law; Jesse s jubilant wedding celebration (to Ry Cooder s rousing country music); and the tragic Great Northfield, Minnesota raid (intensified by Ric Waite s spectacular cinematography). "The best directed American movie of the year" (David Denby, New York) is also "heroic folk romance as well as it has ever been done….This picture will be remembered." (Pauline Kael)
