Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/4 --
If writer-director Ty Roberts doesn't exactly hit pay dirt, neither does he leave viewers completely empty-handed.

Film Frenzy
Rating: 4/5 --
A beautifully shot film of sunlight and sweat about the wildcatting days of the Texas oil boom that overcomes its storytelling deficiencies.

The Film Yap
Rating: 1.5/4 --
The movie should rise and fall on the fortunes - or misfortunes - of its protagonists. Yet, Roberts fails to take advantage of any of this. His movie is a flat and dry as his Texas terrain.

Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Rating: 1.5/4 --
As competently put together as this movie is, it imparted to me no sense of a higher calling, and thus left me unmoved.

Though there are some well-framed shots from cinematographer Mathieu Plainfossé, the script from Gerry De Leon and director Ty Roberts is lifeless, covered in a layer of dust that the cast can't rouse it from.

Los Angeles Times
Rating: C- --
It's obvious director Ty Roberts thinks he has an epic in his hands, but with underwritten characters and relationships, second-rate dialogue and an oil story that goes nowhere interesting, The Iron Orchard strikes nothing of substance.

A curious soap opera that nobody outside of Texas will give a [crap] about.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Jim McNeely (Lane Garrison) is thrust into the vibrant and brutal West Texas oilfields in 1939. In a state gushing with oil and filled with ambition, McNeely settles into a small-town community that is slowly overcoming the trauma of the Great Depression. The formidable path before him is reddled with obstacles--overbearing bosses who try to keep him down, powerful oilmen who are reluctant to invest in a fresh face, and women who see salvation in his charms--but he finds a glimmer of hope with his first loves: new wife Lee Montgomery (Ali Cobrin) and drilling for oil. With everything falling into place to ascen to the top of the oil chain, McNeely stumbles upward through his success and in turn jeopardizes his desperate longing to conquer this brave new world of influence and wealth. What will define his legacy in building the rich oil tradition of West Texas?
