The New York Times
Steel Dawn has been directed by Lance Hool to emphasize Mr. Swayze's biceps. The movie starts with the mysterious fighter standing on his head. Maybe it looks better that way. - 38
Chicago Tribune
The derivative nature of it all wouldn't be so bad if the script and acting weren't so plain and unenticing, while the adventure and the plot-the future is dominated by tyrranical baddies whom Swayze and the ranchers valiantly battle-are slow-moving and mostly empty. - 25
TV Guide Magazine
Though the action is competently staged, there's little else in this film to hold one's attention. - 20
Los Angeles Times
Hool directs all this so lethargically you might suspect he’s gone missing in action himself.
