Reviews
For the lexicon of international film , the film was a "psychologically largely balanced, exciting western that advocates the enforcement of law without violence". Phil Hardy saw the purpose of the film primarily to be to let John Wayne "beat around to his heart's content." Joe Hembus judges in his Western Lexicon that Chisum is a "large-scale, but somewhat lifeless film." The Protestant Film Observer notes succinctly, the film propagates “the self-help of the citizens in a state portrayed as helpless” and represents “right-wing extremist tendencies”.
Awards
