United States | Chicago Tribune | "Broken Trail is a gorgeous piece of cinema. Sure, it’s cozy to watch on your couch, but believe me, you’ll want to see those blue skies and snow-capped mountains on a bigger screen." | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "'Broken Trail' is not as well written or compelling as "Lonesome Dove," but Mr. Duvall brings an earthy believability to even the most plodding lines (...) 'Broken Trail' may not be great, but it's good enough". | POS |

United States | Variety | "While this 'Trail' ain't exactly broken, some judicious editing could have fixed it" | NEU |
