Five years after the Civil War, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Academy Award® winner Tom Hanks) moves from town to town as a non-fiction storyteller, sharing the news from the far reaches of the globe. In the plains of Texas, he crosses paths with a 10-year-old girl taken in by the Kiowa people and raised as one of their own. Kidd agrees to deliver the child where the law says she belongs. As they travel hundreds of miles into the unforgiving wilderness, the two face tremendous challenges of both human and natural forces as they search for a place they can call home.

FILMHOUNDS Magazine

Christopher Connor

News Of The World doesn't do anything radically different than what we might come to expect from the Western but it is a well-directed, gorgeously shot film that gets the best out of its two stars at polar opposite stages in their careers.

Fresh

Shows the ingredients of a country at birth, against the backdrop of a newspaper mural that reports sins that are still happening in the second decade of the twentieth century, and this gives the film a spectacular pertinency. [Full review in Spanish]

Rotten

News of the World, while mildly entertaining, needed a bit more grit and less preaching.

News of the World is a leisurely lark that showcases sturdy studio filmmaking, with a pair of powerful performances from Tom Hanks and Helena Zengel.

“News of the World” simmers with current day relevancy, but it very much looks and feels like a classic Hollywood Western...
