Leave your thoughts about Wise Guys.
| Chicago TribuneGene SiskelBig laughs, foul language to the point of absurdity and one hilarious, screaming performance atop another combine to make Wise Guys one of the funniest times you will have at the movies this year. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertWise Guys is an abundant movie, filled with ideas and gags and great characters. It never runs dry. It never has the desperation of so many gangster comedies, which seem to be marching over the same tired ground. This movie was made with joy, and you can feel it in the sense of all the actors working at the top of their form. |
| The New York TimesWalter GoodmanFrom its cartoony credits to its knish-and-cannoli close, Wise Guys is one funny movie. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatBrian DePalma, who made some funny movies years ago, seems to have lost his touch. |
| NewsweekJack KrollThe macho bluster taken seriously in De Palma’s gorgeous but uninterestingly pumped-up Elliott Ness saga is here intriguingly skewered. |
| Los Angeles TimesPatrick GoldsteinDirected by Brian De Palma with an uncharacteristic twinkle in his eye, the film offers such a likable gallery of cement-heads that we're in no mood to carp about the movie's creaky storyline, belabored gags or meandering chase scenes. |
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordSome great laughs, but it isn't hard to see why the film was never released theatrically in Britain: at times it just gets bogged down with over-the-top performances. The ending is great, though. |
| Slant MagazineFernando F. CroceA mid-career faux pas, or the director's equivalent of the coruscating, laugh-stuck-in-your-throat dissonance of The King of Comedy? |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioOften funny, though just as often tasteless. |
| Washington PostRita KempleyWise Guys, a surprisingly sweet, but sluggish Mafia farce, teams easy-going Joe Piscopo with driven, dangerous Danny De Vito in a neo-Abbott and Costello Meet the Godfather. |
