- 90Village VoiceVillage VoiceRemember the shitty crime comedies every Hollywood brat tried to make after "Pulp Fiction"? It took an Irish playwright to get it right. See it with an audience.
- 83Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumEntertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumAn energetically demented psycho-killer comedy set in faux-noir L.A., Seven Psychopaths rollicks along to the unique narrative beat and language stylings of Anglo-Irish writer-director Martin McDonagh (In Bruges), channeling Quentin Tarantino.
- There are scenes of complete brilliance, Walken is better than he's been in years, cute plot loops and grace notes.
- While it's way behind the "Pulp Fiction" curve, Seven Psychopaths can be terrifically entertaining.
- 70New York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinNew York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinSam Rockwell kills as the hero's loony tunes best friend, deliciously abetted by Christopher Walken as an aging, sad-sack dognapper.
- 60Time OutKeith UhlichTime OutKeith UhlichWalken is particularly alive in a way he's rarely been since "Catch Me if You Can," adding untold shades to Hans's mystery-shrouded past - wait until you see what's under his cravat - while still giving his singularly eccentric line readings.
- 50The PlaylistKevin JagernauthThe PlaylistKevin JagernauthSomewhat spastic and overcooked, Seven Psychopaths might have a few too many.
