"An excellent, literate action drama probing the diverse motivations of participants in an endurance horse race... The secrets of the characters emerge plausibly and rationally."
(Variety)
"No point in beating about the bush, Bite the Bullet is just about as perfect a screen entertainment as anyone could ask for. It sustains its pulse-pounding pace for well over two hours. The attention doesn't falter for a moment."
(The Hollywood Reporter)
"Nearly everyone has agreed that Bite the Bullet marked the beginning of a resurgence in the period Western film."

"Grand adventure in the classic tradition."
(Maltin)
