South of Heaven

Wigham is the only actor who seems to be having fun with the overwrought script; but he was born to play smarmy Southern creeps.

South of Heaven's most meaningful moments are in the interplay between Lilly and Sudeikis as the star-crossed lovers with time most definitely not on their side... It's hard not to wish that there'd been more time with them.

South of Heaven devolves into a rote thriller, with henchmen upon henchmen upon henchmen falling by the wayside until the inevitable showdown - which plays out in underwhelming fashion.

The film has its pleasures, but they come only in the moments where the unexpected happens.

A Texas melodrama that's as convincing as a taxidermied jackalope

Straight-faced and suspenseful at first, wacky and almost randomly nihilistic afterwards, South Of Heaven just doesn't know what it wants to be.

A comforting thriller about charming losers... [Full review in Spanish]

The performances in South of Heaven - at least those of Sudeikis, Whigham, and Colter - are solid, if unflashy.

Just the movie if you're in the mood for shootouts, hit-and-run accidents, hip banter and romance.

Starts out as a harmless, sleepy movie and then goes on a wild ride that is very entertaining.
