- "Going Home" is a fairly awful melodrama that's worth seeing primarily for the presence of Robert Mitchum. Not that he's especially good. Mitchum can't be described as good or bad in most of his performances. It's just that he's there, the kind of screen presence that draws your attention.

Roger Ebert of The Chicago Sun-Times did not care for the film and gave it 2 out of 4 stars: Going Home is a fairly awful melodrama that's worth seeing primarily for the presence of Robert Mitchum. Not that he's especially good. Mitchum can't be described as good or bad in most of his performances.
Going Home intrigued me, an early 70s movie about a man who killed his wife 13 years prior, released on parole and struggling to reconnect with his estranged son. Oh, and that man is played by the great Robert Mitchum. Mitchum is as reliable as ever but the film never really lives up to its premise.
