Movie Reviews

Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenThe movie's critiques of the music industry, the ganja trade, and organized religion still ring true.
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul - 8/10 by Rob NelsonPacked with indelible images and potent subtexts (and great songs), this isn't just another bridge between Godard and MTV.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Melissa AndersonThe definitive postcolonial cult-movie musical.
Goatdog's Movies - 7/10 by Michael W. Phillips, Jr.Entertaining if not incredibly professional.
Time Out - 6/10 by Tony RaynsThe action is as gutsy as the well-integrated score, which makes the movie's Hollywood-style gloss a little anomalous, but the basic humour and toughness emerge unscathed.
Combustible Celluloid - 6/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonThe real reason to see The Harder They Come in the first place, even if the film is surprisingly good, is the music.
TIME Magazine - 6/10 by Jay CocksThe Harder They Come is always exuberant, and sometimes strong, as casually surprising and effortlessly sinister as the blade sliding out of a gravity knife.
The Spectator - 6/10 by Mark Le FanuA film so assured and professional that it makes one suspect the presence of a thriving industry that has for years gone unacknowledged in Europe.
Time Out - 4/10 by Stephen GarrettAtrocious acting, amateurish camerawork and a hackneyed story line all make for one painful slog.
User Review - 10/10 by Bob MI enjoy and appreciate this one more each time. 35 yrs on from the first viewing and it wears it's age seamlessly. Look for the Criterion edition (no longer in print) which has wonderful commentary by both Henzell and Cliff.
