The film met with a largely negative reaction from critics. Many were unimpressed by the attempt to shoehorn two different viewpoints into the same film - the mistreatment of the native Americans by American troops, and the portrayal of Custer as an American hero who was not to blame for the disaster. The general inaccuracies of the film were also questioned, particularly the portrayal of the Battle of the Little Bighorn. The film only returned theatrical rentals of $400,000 in the United States and Canada.
