	Author	Review
United States	Dennis Harvey Variety	"Rarely has the gap between outlandish concept and pedestrian execution been quite so wide"	NEU
United States	Katie Rife AV Club	"Krzykowski’s blending of the film’s wildly divergent tones is admirable for a debut feature"	POS
United States	Jordan Ruimy The Playlist	"A film that isn’t quite sure what it wants to be (...) Shapeless, and meandering"	NEG
Canada	J Hurtado Screen Anarchy	"The problem is that the film feels very hastily put together, in spite of its good intentions (...) The character of Calvin Barr is actually quite good"	NEU
United States	Haleigh Foutch Collider	"This isn’t a movie to turn to for light entertainment or camp spectacle. It’s an introspective character piece that allows Elliott to deliver one of the most grounded, nuanced performances of his career (...) A fascinating experiment.	POS
United Kingdom	Leslie Felperin The Guardian	"We’re not fooled. This is an elaborate Dadaist joke, the funniest part of which is that it’s not in the least bit funny (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Jeremy Aspinall Radio Times	"A well-crafted meditation on legend, reality and regret, galvanised by a magnetic performance from the majestic Sam Elliott (...) Unfortunately, the narrative doesn't always hang together (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"A wise, odd, and unforgettable ballad"	POS
