Roger Ebert

"Horizon" isn't trying to subvert the Western, relying on many well-worn tropes. It's also a slow build of intersecting stories that takes so long to get going that Costner doesn’t even appear on screen until an hour in.

Screen Rant

Costner’s latest is worth seeing in theaters for his visual storytelling alone.

Variety

'Horizon' is by turns convoluted, ambitious, intriguing, and meandering. But it’s never quite moving.

IndieWire

Good luck to you and all who plod along dusty roads with you if the first chapter of Kevin Costner’s “Horizon: An American Saga” compels you to seek out the forthcoming second one.

The Hollywood Reporter

This first part of a quartet of films is littered with inessential scenes and characters that go nowhere, taking far too long to connect its messy plot threads.

Horizon: An American Saga creates one of its own myths, turning Manifest Destiny into a big ol' Manifest Oopsie.

Empire Online

It's fine for an epic to sprawl, but you want a sense of purpose at the same time, and this one sometimes loses its way. Still, it’s handsomely shot and well performed, a throwback to the glory days of event-movie horse operas.

IMDb

I loved this more than Coppola's Megalopolis. Going to see it for a second time when it comes out. Really one of the best films of the 2020s. Masterpiece from start to finish.
