Time Magazine says, "It is so cool it is barely alive. First-rate ingredients and a finesse in assembling them do not quite make either a movie or a cake. At some point it is necessary to light the oven." Time Out says it "operates most noticeably, and in the main successfully, as a slickly packaged youth movie."
Roger Ebert gives it 1 1/2 stars and says poses this question: "whether Perry intended his film to be a comedy. The ads suggest that he did, and yet Tom McGuane's screenplay just doesn't have any laughs in it." Rotten Tomatoes has a critics score of 69% and an audience score of 38%.

I haven't heard of this one, but seems like your opinion is the same as the critics. Guess I will skip it. Happy weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI'd love someone who liked it to explain what they saw...
DeleteI've not heard of this, but it certainly held an impressive cast. Too bad the oven never got lit!!
ReplyDeleteThe cast was irresistible. For a while ;)
DeleteI saw this way back when only because I will watch anything with Jeff Bridges in it--LOL! And he's been in some bombs. ;)
ReplyDeleteJeff Bridges is always a draw. I didn't hear about this one when it was released, but a western wouldn't have attracted me back then.
