A great premise brought me out to the theatre for this one, but it's gorgeous cinematography and consistent sense of style could not make up for extremely stilted, forced dialogue and severe pacing issues. Aside from the eponymous character, the majority of the performances also seem made more for TV than for this format.

Arid and sluggish, with ostentatiously arty trappings. Shephard's Cassidy is little more than a grizzled cipher, and the film seems much more interested in gawking at purty Bolivia than concerning itself with things like plot, character, or overall coherence. Aggressively unspectacular, as a whole.

It's not just a man enjoying a ride on a horse, it's a what-if story if Butch Cassidy survived the Bolivian shoot-out. It's got quite a good storyline going, and together with the shots of Bolivian nature it is a rather enjoyable film.

Went in expecting something gritty--a man struggling to overcome his past demons while dealing with who he truly is down deep inside--but what I got was a nice old man who seems to enjoy riding his horse. If anything, this film did make me want to go to Bolivia. What a beautiful country.

"Mateo Gil certainly can be held responsible for turning the iconic outlaw into a paper-thin Clint Eastwood-Unforgiven cliché." - Nick Schager
