Leave your thoughts about Get Shorty.
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePhilip Martin"Get Shorty" isn't Quentin Tarantino watered down; it's Elmore Leonard done right. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsTed PriggeIt works so great as a whole that it is entertaining while it is intelligent. Imagine that. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsDragan AntulovHigh expectations only led to huge disappointment. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerAn award winning film that is thoroughly entertaining, one that you can watch again, and again, and .... |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonGet Shorty - for all its critical and commercial acclaim - has never received its due as one of the funniest Hollywood films of modern times. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonIt's not an official masterpiece, but like Casablanca, it's a virtually flawless product of the Hollywood machine. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaHas more than a few nasty quips directed at Hollywood and the vacuous, egotistical people who populate it. |
| Film.comJohn HartlIn Get Shorty, director Barry Sonnenfeld's spirited adaptation of the Elmore Leonard novel, Travolta's rebirth accelerates directly into adulthood. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliWith Get Shorty, Sonnenfeld has shown that broad appeal doesn't necessarily equate with stupidity. That's a lesson Hollywood should learn. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversOne of the best movies of the year and by far the most entertaining. |
