Leave your thoughts about Assassination Tango.
| Journal News (Westchester, NY)Marshall FineDuvall is one of our great film actors -- and, with Assassination Tango, he once again shows just what a quirky and original storyteller he is. |
| Washington PostStephen HunterDuvall is a great actor in the homestretch of a great career; it's hard to hold this trifle against him, and certainly nobody will. |
| NewsdayJan StuartAssassination Tango runs aground with an accumulation of small illogicalities. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe movie is not quite successful. It is too secretive about its heart. |
| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanSomeone forgot to remind Duvall to write an ending. |
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonThe characters and situations here are all stereotypical or undercooked. |
| San Diego Union-TribuneDavid ElliottWatching a Robert Duvall performance has become like putting on a great, weathered pair of boots -- you know it will feel good and you will want to go the distance. |
| South Florida Sun-SentinelLaura KellyNot so much a movie as a chance to sidle up alongside Robert Duvall and twirl around a cinematic dance floor with him. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzI loved this film for what it didn't try to do. |
| Film Freak CentralWalter ChawMore a song about living and dying well than a picture that makes much sense in the traditional definition. |
