- 79Paste MagazineScott WoldPaste MagazineScott WoldIts ambition is as small as its budget, but hell if the filmmaker, cast and crew don’t seem more than enthusiastic in serving up the entirely nutrition-less titillation.

But in a multiplex world of grim action thrillers with dark heroes, it isn't the worst thing to blow an hour and a half on a film where everyone - including supporting players Gary Busey, Beverly D'Angelo and Kristanna Loken - seems to be having a good time.

If the answer is yes, then Bounty Killer is right up your alley.

- 20The New York TimesMiriam BaleThe New York TimesMiriam BaleWatching this movie feels like viewing a very long, expensive car commercial and waiting for the real film to begin.
