Review of Heaven's Gate (1980) by Vincent Canby for The New York Times — 21 Sep 1991
Nothing in the movie works properly. For all of the time and money that went into it, it's jerry-built, a ship that slides straight to the bottom at its christening. Heaven's Gate is something quite rare in movies these days - an unqualified disaster.
