Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyToo bad that the gifted director Hal Ashby (Last Detail, Shampoo) ended his career with such a sleazy thriller that even the reliable and appealing Jeff Bridges can't salvage.
Rolling Stone - 6/10 by Bilge EbiriThe plot doesn’t make much sense, but the film is filled with lovely little moments courtesy of Bridges, who brings a casualness to this character that feels right.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Rita KempleyWhat could have been a better film delving into complexities of one tough-but-vulnerable alcoholic sheriff out to bust a cocaine ring, instead ends up an oddly-paced work that is sometimes a thriller and sometimes a love story, succeeding at neither.
Los Angeles Times - 3/10 by Sheila Benson8 Million Ways to Die is a ponderous, convoluted improbability, with more inexplicable actions and situations than "The Big Sleep," which is the last time those two films will ever be mentioned in the same sentence.
Washington Post - 3/10 by Paul AttanasioConsidering the major talents involved here, one would expect to find something more than a run-of-the-mill crime thriller. In a sense one does, for 8 MILLION WAYS TO DIE is a paralyzingly inept film.
Miami Herald - 3/10 by Bill CosfordHOW did Eight Million Ways to Die commit suicide? Let us count the ways.
Variety - 2/10 by Variety StaffAn oddly-paced work that is sometimes a thriller and sometimes a love story, succeeding at neither.
User Review - 10/10 by Lilhawkk HGreat movie ,whats the hold up on th DVD release?
User Review - 10/10 by Wade BGreat 80's thriller. Underrated Jeff Bridges performance. Not as good as the book but its all right.
User Review - 8/10 by Ted WOne of my favorite movies, I love it. The acting, the cinematography that has a raw open feel is cool. I love the use of locations, as I did in another 86 flick, The Hitcher. There are moments in the film that are so realistic. it's like an exchange of dialogue in real life, where I feel it had a lot to do with ad libbing. Bridges is so believable as the booze hound detective, Matt Scudder, while it's the new Garcia who steals the movie as a pimp, called Angel. The credit opening tracking sequence is so cool and awesome, but so are a lot of moments in this flick. Alexandra Paul as the ill fated whore Sunny, you can just eat up. Though disjointed, EMWTD has some awesome dialogue, and there is that chase scene with Paul buying it in the back of a van in a daylight snatch, where the back van window turns crimson. If you love 1986 movies like I do, here's one you should see, no excuses, especially Scarface fans. If you wanna really see a cool things in a film that rides on coolness, this is the flick. I mean, just check out Angel's pad, and another one he buys later on.
