- Jerkass Woobie: Carver. He's abrasive and uncaring about his men, but he's hunting down the man responsible for the death of his family.
- One-Scene Wonder: Every character or group of characters who Gideon and his pursuers briefly encounter get a lot of respect from most fans, but some are particularly memorable and feel like much bigger parts of the movie than they actually are.
- The Nice Mean And In Between bank robber brothers and cousin who encounter Gideon.
- Carver’s wife is quite haunting in the flashbacks of her Plot-Triggering Death.
- Little Miss Badass Determined Homesteaders daughter Charlotte.
- Cold Ham Magical Native American Charon and the eerie saleswoman Madame Louise amp up the Magical Realism during their brief screen time.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: A common complaint is that, as the pursuit goes further and further downhill, the quality of the film goes with it. The descent into overt metaphor and Magical Realism once the characters reach the desert feels quite muddled compared to the more straightforward and brutal chase through the savage beauty of the mountains.
