Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3.5/5 --
The punch of the film is in its details of rodeo life as it is, and for this R. K. O. and Producer Jerry Wald have a dynamic film.

Ray takes a thin story and enriches it with depth, complexity, and interesting characters.

Rating: 4/5 --
Portrayed with Ray's usual sympathy for outsiders, the central threesome are decent, flawed romantics .

The Dissolve
Rating: B+ --
Ray's last b/w film captures the life of rodeo players with vivid details, lyrical images, and melnacholy mood, centering on a romantic triangle, well played by Arthur Kennedy, Susan Hayward, and especially Robert Mitchum as the aging champ.

EmanuelLevy.Com
A good action yarn, burdened from time to time by excessive dialogue, about the professional rodeo circuit and the hardy horse-tamers who inhabit it.

Maclean's Magazine
The story isn't much (the security of family life versus the rootlessness and danger of working as a rodeo rider), but the situation is rich in emotional resonances which Ray conjures into life convincingly.

Description by OLDIES.com:
"Never was a bronc that couldn't be rode. Never was a cowboy that couldn't be throwed." Spinning tales of big money made as a bronco buster, an ex-rodeo star (Robert Mitchum) wanders into the life of ranch hand Wes Merritt (Arthur Kennedy). Wes is won over, despite the protests of his wife (Susan Hayward), who, against her judgment, feels drawn to the stranger, too.
