Leave your thoughts about The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight.
| FulvueDrive-in.comChuck O'LearyThis stupid spoof of organized crime is about as appealing as week-old spaghetti. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe gangster comedy spoof based on the best seller 1968 novel by Jimmy Breslin tanks. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertOne of the hazards of movie comedy is that it's almost impossible to be sure that what reads funny will look funny. The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight, an uncertain comedy based on Jimmy Breslin's funny novel, supplies plenty of examples. |
| Cleveland PressTony MastroianniThe Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight opens and closes funny but in between has nowhere to go. |
| User ReviewChelsea KSooo entertaining it's not even funny!!! (well it is funny but...) for goodness sake there's a pet lion that robs and kills people, without haming them once? haha. Funny plot, great slapstick comedy. and Robert as you've never seen before. Oh and the female lead is quite interesting as well... Grande, friends, Grande... |
| User ReviewKato HYes, a bit out of wack! But plenty of slap stick humor for the 70's at its time! Its an OK movie, nothing to write home about! The grandmother is hillarious! |
| User ReviewSeth KAn early Rob't DeNiro flick with Jerry Orbach, Lionel Stander, Herve' Villechaise (with dubbed-in tough guy bass voice), Burt Young and a host of great character actors like Jo Van Fleet, frank Campanella, Phil Bruns, Jack Kehoe, Michael V. Gazzo and ad infintum. This is a crude awkward black comedy, based on the Jimmy Breslin novel. It still makes me laugh. |
| User Reviewjohn oTo be fair it was pretty funny but it had an anti-climactic ending,funny seeing De Niro that young, good comedy. |
| User ReviewMereie dMore like the gang that couldn't stay funny or keep my interest. |
| User ReviewAllan CThe two best things in this film are one, that I figured out where Big Audio Dynamite got one of their samples ("I'm concerned over the possibility of another gang war.") and two, Jerry Orbach's gorgeous head of hair. Other than that, there's not a lot to recommend about this not so funny mafia comedy. |
