Well mounted with good production and technical values, the film has an inexplicable gentleness to the narration, very characteristic of Vidhu Vinod Chopra. It will appeal to the emotionally inclined.

Producer Director Vidhu Vinod Chopra takes a plunge in the west with Broken Horses, an English adaptation of his 1989 hit Parinda. The result is a mixed bag, some of it is satisfying while the rest doesn’t quite rise above the ordinary at times. Set on the U.S.- Mexico border, he along with co-writer Abhijat Joshi serves us a modern day western .

…a Vidhu Vinod Chopra Bollywood film with Hollywood actors and settings. It is grim, dark, violent and sporadically powerful, yet too sentimental and emotionally manipulative for its own good.
