Movie Reviews

eFilmCritic.com - 8/10 by Scott WeinbergNicholson does a markedly better job with the material than anyone could have expected.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Gary ArnoldGoin' South is the most flat-footed comedy to collapse on the screen since Nickelodeon.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 5/10 by Jay ScottAlthough the premise of Goin' South is clever, the story is unbelievable and, under Nicholson's first grip as a director, is unwieldy and directionless. The tale is presented in disjointed, confusing, poorly set sequences. Nicholson the actor is mildly amusing, as are some of his riotous gang members, DeVito and Belushi (the latter appearing only briefly, irrespective of his high billing). But the whole film deteriorates midway into amateurish mugging and slapstick.
Washington Post - 4/10 by Judith MartinA bucolic sex comedy in which Nicholson the director indulges Nicholson the star an orgy of coy monkey-shines in the role of a scruffy outlaw who enters into a marriage of convenience with a demure young woman who owns a ranch and a goldmine - expires right before your eyes from a terminal case of the feebles. Goin' South is the most flat-footed comedy to collapse on the screen since Nickelodeon.
User Review - 10/10 by William PA downtrodden outlaw who finds a loophole that lets him evade the gallows by slipping a wedding ring on a lonely spinster.
User Review - 10/10 by kalandra .Funny! Nicolson is great in this one! I loved it!
User Review - 10/10 by Amanda RI think this movie was hilarious. Nicholson's wild eyes made this movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Curtis LUn western signé Jack Nicholson ! C'est bien filmé et l'histoire est vraiment intéressante, Un Jack Nicholson toujours fidèle à lui meme. Je conseille. A noter John Belushi y tiens un petit rôle et rien que pour ça ça vaut le coup d'oeil !
User Review - 10/10 by Chris SI loved this film. Star filled and very entertaining. Full of laughs with an outstanding script and stellar performances.
User Review - 10/10 by Umit SA great Western Romantic comedy it seems like jack Nicholson lands a lot of roles where hes a foul mouthed grouch in the beginning and throughout the movie you see his character change
