Critic Reviews of "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada"
Globe and MailFebruary 24, 2006This isn't a film that demands to be enjoyed in order to be remembered -- one way or the other, it will stick with you.
Orlando SentinelFebruary 24, 2006With all due respect to that important, quasi-controversial, most-honored film of last year, this is the best Western of 2005.
Miami HeraldFebruary 24, 2006[A] long, kooky, immensely absorbing picture, which forges the elegiac cruelty of a Cormac McCarthy novel with the two-fisted machismo of a Sam Peckinpah movie, and comes up with an altogether new brand of Western mythology.
Detroit NewsFebruary 24, 2006Funny, tough, filled with cut-to-the-bone moments and bleached in the heat of the Texas sun, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada is a movie that sears itself into the viewer with uncompromising vision and stark approach.
Detroit Free PressFebruary 24, 2006It boasts genuinely and uniformly fine performances -- a credit to Jones the director and the actor, as well as his costars -- some stunning cinematography by the great Chris Menges and a uncompromising script by [Guillermo] Arriaga.
Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionFebruary 23, 2006Tommy Lee Jones' big-screen directorial debut might not be the easiest film to watch, but its payoff makes it one of the better trips to the movies of the past year.
Stop SmilingMarch 05, 2014In The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, there is heartbreak, loss, and adultery, all of it general and all of it far more affecting than any self-righteous ethics or anachronistic western codes.
Film and FeltJune 14, 2010An offbeat, tonal take on the Western, Tommy Lee Jones' The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada is best described as soulful and creative, if scattered and overambitious.
Film ScoutsJune 21, 2007Tommy Lee himself must be mentioned, as he pulls a nuanced role with a craggy, sunburnt face that's impressive to behold. He's at the top of his game in this flick, all the more remarkable as he's literally wearing many hats on the production.
Film4June 15, 2007Part character study, part Peckinpah-esque border Western, part mystic epic, Three Burials traverses its uncharted territories with a humour and humanity that lighten the burden of its sadness.
BlackFilm.comMay 31, 2007Breathtaking tableaus, colorful characters, and a moving message about redemption end up overshadowed by wanton insanity one might normally associate with a sadistic snuff film.
