Critic Reviews
-
Leonard Klady, Variety
A tres hip slice of life about the dilemma of marital commitment with just a pinch of Hitchcock providing the cutting edge.
-
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader
Myers pumps out a river of inventive shtick, but it doesn't cohere or connect; he seems less a character than a comedian doing couch time on a late-night talk show.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
The look of So I Married an Axe Murderer is crisply professional, and John Graysmark's production design provides an element of visual surprise.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Juggling mirth, romance and murder requires a deft touch -- think of Hitchcock's Trouble With Harry. Axe is a blunt instrument.
-
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
It doesn't help matters much that director Thomas Schlamme pays homage to great marital murder mysteries of the past, mostly because the attempts to borrow from the classics are so halfhearted.
