Pros: Gritty
Cons: See review
The Ox-Bow Incident (1943) “Justice? What do you care about justice? You don't even care whether you've got the right men or not. All you know is you've lost something and somebody's got to be punished.” Donald Martin ”No ...

Pros: Good story and acting. Short and to the point. Doesn't follow the "Hollywood formula"
Cons: Becomes a bit too preachy near the end.
This review was originally posted September 24, 2002. It became most well known not for its content, but for a debate that mfunk75 and I had in the comment box. The issue first began with Harry Morgan (I’m not too big on the guy, but he is a ...

Pros: Length, performances, action, strong message without being too preachy
Cons: Could have done without the subplot, The letter brings in a touch of preachiness
Except for those heartwarming, family dramas (Dr Quinn and Little House on the Prairie), I 'hate, loathe, despise and abominate'* westerns. They're full of dusty places and dusty people with ugly hats. And, although I don't hate Henry Fonda, I can't say...

Pros: A "Mint Set" of writing, direction, and acting
Cons: It doesn't show more often on the Classic Movie channels
Reviewing The Ox-Bow Incident is something like trying to rate the quality of a proof set of U.S. coins. The set comes from the U.S. Mint, sealed in its tarnish-proof package, and shining irridescently in its mirror-perfect finish. Each coin...

by BrianKoller - Top 50, Dec 22 '99
Pros: script, story, memorable characters
Cons: sometimes preachy
"The Ox-Bow Incident" is a western that begins by mixing comedy and drama, but gradually becomes an indictment of mob violence and man's inhumanity to man. While sometimes heavyhanded, the quality of the script, direction and cast is otherwise...

by SKAD13 - Top 1000, Jul 29 '00
Pros: excellent performances all around
Cons: a bit preachy at times
Clocking in at a compact 75 minutes, the legendary Ox-Bow Incident still packs a wallop as a "thinking man's Western." Henry Fonda and Harry Morgan (decades away from his TV fame on "Dragnet" and "M*A*S*H") play Gil Carter...
