Media reviews

Variety

Can be enjoyed as both a straight-shooting homage to crotchety sidekicks and shoot-?em-up conventions, and a well-crafted movie about loyalty, betrayal, and redemption.

Pullman has no trouble making the character sympathetic, even as he maintains the near-ineptitude Lefty's known for.

This is a satisfying indie western, a dark and brooding film made with both a modern touch and real love for the genre.

By giving the spotlight to an archetype usually relegated to the background, writer-director Jared Moshé puts a revisionist spin on the familiar oater, but everything else about 'The Ballad of Lefty Brown' is by the book.

Mr. Moshe knows his genre. There's beauty in his panoramas and charm in his reflexive gestures.

Writer-director Jared Moshé (...) juggles a lot of ideas about the mythology and gentrification of the frontier, though none of them are fresh; at this point, Westerns have been commenting on their own tropes for something like 70 years.
