Critics Consensus

Its greatness is blunted by its length and one-sided point of view, but the film's weaknesses are overpowered by Michael Cimino's sympathetic direction and a series of heartbreaking performances from Robert De Niro, Meryl Streep, and Christopher Walken.

A great, well-told story of the aftermath of war from an American point of view. The main thing that hurts this film is its length.

They just don't make movies like this anymore. Honest, genuine, epic.

Drags on far too long. Apart from a few intense Russian roulette scenes, there is not much of interest here.

This is a typical 70s hit. They spend time creating the background and getting you invested in the characters. The acting is great and the story is powerful. While there is action in the movie, much of the movie is spent developing the characters and I remember seeing this movie when I was 7 (2nd movie in a double-feature drive-in), but I didn't really understand it. While it is disturbing, I felt it was very well done. In our current age of "forever wars" (in the US) this movie is still very relevant.

... Perhaps a little cumbersome, but it’s hard not to get caught up in the film’s big, sentimental sweep.

Stanley Kauffmann

The New Republic

So many of the elements are so good that it all adds up to a pity. Someone, or more than one -- writer or producers or director or editor or all -- fogged up about why this picture was being made and whether it was on the rails.

Charles Champlin

Los Angeles Times

A film to be debated and argued over seriously because it is an earnest, serious and impressive work, despite the reservations it is necessary to have about it. In a thin and evasive year, The Deer Hunter joins a thin company that aspire to greatness.

Crooked Marquee

There’s something elemental about the movie’s boys’ adventure machismo, a primal force that overpowers Cimino’s more cartoonish flourishes.

Awards Daily

Michael Cimino’s tale about the physical, emotional, and psychological impacts the Vietnam War had on a group of friends remains one of film's ultimate masterpieces. Very few movies have ever captured the unsparing aftermath of war quite as devastatingly.

New Times (magazine)

It grabs you by the lapel and says, "Call me masterpiece!"... These weaknesses are The Deer Hunter's greatest strength -- because, in a year of timid moviemaking, they trumpet the film's daring to fail at being great.
