Movie Reviews

The Seattle Times - 9/10 by John HartlAlthough the film is built around the town's big centennial celebration, there are no big dramatic events in the usual sense; the film's focus is the complications, readjustments, and discoveries of middle age, and it's entirely to the credit of old movie buff Bogdanovich, who wrote the script, that there isn't a single film reference in sight.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 9/10 by William ArnoldThe town seems to be as preoccupied as ever with its own personalities and memories, as if it were sitting for its portrait.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertIt is, in a sense, like a high school reunion, taking people we last saw in 1951 and continuing their histories in the early 1980s.
Rolling Stone - 8/10 by Peter TraversThe real burned-out case is director-writer Peter Bogdanovich. The Last Picture Show made his reputation, and these aging Texans trying to rediscover their innocence obviously touch him deeply. But Bogdanovich’s style has turned heavy, crude and incoherent.
Christian Science Monitor - 6/10 by David SterrittLike Sonny’s moving pictures in his mind, Bogdanovich sees things we can’t; when we can join him--in moments of family and connectedness--Texasville is touching. Most other times it’s the darndest mess you ever saw.
Dispatch-Tribune Newspapers - 6/10 by Steve CrumGood but far from great sequel to Bogdanovich's "Last Picture Show."
Portland Oregonian - 6/10 by Ted MaharThere are times when Texasville, like the Larry McMurtry novel on which it is based, seems top heavy with eccentrics. Everybody is tirelessly and (worse) lovably oddball. The snappy dialogue occasionally exhausts. Yet also like the book, the movie becomes seriously involving, a cockeyed acknowledgment of an especially American kind of inarticulate despair.
Empire - 6/10 by Mat SnowAn amazing exercise in character development which successfully shows the character as they were in the first film and as they are now. It is flawed in the basics, but often delightful in detail.
Apollo Guide - 5/10 by Scott WeinbergThe Last Picture Show is a stark and hypnotic portrait of a West Texas town in its final death throes, a lyrical and touching film about friendship and love and sex. Texasville is about nothing.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Rita KempleyBogdanovich, who worked with McMurtry on the Last Picture Show screenplay, adapted this one on his own. It's kinda like he tried to pare down the big ol' Encyclopaedia Britannica and couldn't bear to leave out nothin' -- a lot of Billy Joe Bob types talking guff and hogwash and settin' round the Burger King eating fried eggs. This is purty near the worst movie of the whole year.
