ANTI Reviews
|
| | The western is an enormously resilient form, but never has that resilience been tested quite so much as in this movie. | | | | (Arthur Knight) | | Altman is an ideological fashion-monger. He exploits established anti-establishment modes. He relies on predecessors to stake out and illuminate the ground, then he rides in like a black-humor Buffalo Bill expecting the cheers of a hip gallery for his safely satirical derring-do. ... About twenty-five per cent of the dialogue is simply incomprehensible. | | | | (Stanley Kauffmann, New Republic) | | Shelley Duvall, an Altman regular, is rapidly becoming one of the most predictably smarmy screen presences around... What good is Altman's celebrated eight-track sound if all it conveys is a one-track mind? | | | | (John Simon, National Review) | | Altman makes the point that Buffalo Bill was a flamboyant fraud, then belabors it for two hours. Not without interest, but still one of the director's duller movies. | | | | (Leonard Maltin, Maltin's Movie & Video Guide, 2004) |
