Critic Reviews

  • Rafer Guzman, Newsday

    There's just one ingredient missing: anyone with a clue.

  • Cliff Doerksen, Chicago Reader

    Begins affably enough as a random slew of Leone-style squint-a-thons and shoot-outs but then loses it way in a dopey, anachronism-happy sci-fi plot.

  • Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail

    Calling Jonah Hex a waste of time requires qualification, given the action flick weighs in at 82 minutes.

  • Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

    Director Jimmy Hayward fails to establish a viable reason for this movie to exist.

  • Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com

    It isn't just that no effort is expended on old-fogey ideas like character development; it's more that Hayward doesn't even try to make individual scenes make sense.

    When it comes to comics, I'm more a DC man (Vertigo) - until it comes to film adaptations that is. When reading my favourite comics, Transmetropolitan, The Boys, DMZ, 100 Bullets, The Invisibles...the list goes on, I think to myself 'They should totally make this into a… More

    I knew it was gonna be crap...And I was right. But it was really short...and a way to pass time. Nothing wrong with the cast...they're allright. But it's just a B-Rated film about a C-Rated Superhero. Take it or leave it.....I apperently took it...

    "What happened to your face?" some jerk sneers. Hex shoots him, then says, "Cut myself shaving. What happened to yours?" If the Dukes of Hazzard had a baby with Operation: Endgame and and that baby fucked another baby and their child named Drillbit Taylor had a… More
