Country Ratings & Reviews
Detroit Free Press
Catharine Rambeau
This beautifully photographed film is occasionally undermined by dramatic overkill and an excess of rhetoric, but a fine cast and a serious story make it worth seeing.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
There are no "trickle-down economics" working magic here, only an unfeeling bureaucracy that values profit over people.

Nicholas Bell
While Lange's performance alone elevates something like Country... There's something a bit stagnant about the melodrama of William D. Witliff's screenplay, which takes a compelling predicament but can't rightly fashion the familial characteristics.

Jessica Lange received a well deserved Oscar nomination for this compelling chronicle of farming in the Reagan era.

Lange and Shepard are effective as modern farmers under threat.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It has been so long since I've seen a Hollywood film with specific political beliefs that a funny thing happened: The movie's anger moved me as much as its story. The story is pretty moving, too.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
A compelling and important film which presents the anguish, stress and anger of one contemporary farm family faced with foreclosure.
