The film is remembered by Bryan Adams' ballad "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" (included on his Waking Up the Neighbours album and the motion picture's soundtrack) which broke pop chart records in the United Kingdom. It remained Number 1 for a recorded 16 weeks. It was also a #1 hit in Canada and the United States.

Earning $165 million domestically and $225 million abroad, it was second only to Terminator 2 in worldwide 1991 ticket sales. The movie received a mostly positive feedback, but critics complained about Costner's on-again, off-again British accent. Rickman's comedic performance as the Sheriff garnered wide praise, however.
