The Ballad of Cable Hogue Ratings & Reviews
Vague Visages
Justine Smith
Hildy is not the broad stereotype you'd expect her to be either, she is strong willed and independent: she is the closest thing to a Hawksian heroine you'll find in Peckinpah's career...
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
A wryly humorous, leisurely paced, and often overlooked Western.
Los Angeles Free Press
Michael Ross
Gentle, affecting, balanced and very funny.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Appealing gentle Western comedy.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Robards' warm performance makes the film into a casual delight.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
The calm between Peckinpah's tempests
TV Guide
Not a hit at the box office, it remains one of his finest efforts, funny, touching and never mawkishly sentimental.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A funky and appealing Western parable directed by Sam Peckinpah.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Peckinpah shows atypical humor and sense of music too in this original and lyrical comedy-Western-musical, with Jason Robards in top form as one of the director's most sympathetic character.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
A fine movie, a wonderfully comic tale we didn't quite expect from a director who seems more at home with violence than with humor.
New York Times
Roger Greenspun
Peckinpah's gentlest, boldest, and perhaps most likable film to date.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Jason Robards shines in one of his most touching and humorous performances, and David Warner is memorable as a sinning preacher man.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Sam Peckinpah followed The Wild Bunch with this intimate, eccentric, appealing 1970 comedy, which treats many of the same themes in a soft, regretful mode.
