Washington Post
The reason for the film's success is simple. Screenwriter Richard LaGravenese and director Eastwood skirt most of novelist Robert James Waller's excesses. Full Review
Elvis Mitchell
The New York Times
Limited by the vapidity of this material while he trims its excesses with the requisite machete, Mr. Eastwood locates a moving, elegiac love story at the heart of Mr. Waller's self-congratulatory overkill. Full Review

ReelViews
A beautiful film, not only in the way it was photographed, but for the manner through which the characters are revealed to us. Full Review
Kenneth Turan
Los Angeles Times
LaGravenese... has understood that the worst of Bridges is not in its dialogue but in the silent musings that occupy its characters' minds. By keeping those thoughts unspoken, by allowing the camera to show instead of having words tell, much has been accomplished. Full Review

Austin Chronicle
Bridges is another example of Eastwood's remarkable economy of style as both a director and an actor. It is neither his best work nor his worst, though it is a fascinating exploration. Full Review
