Oliver Daly’s film is a love letter to 80s action characters, but it’s just not a very good one.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 16, 2022

Although the setup to this British crime comedy is a bit of a stretch, the execution is often quite funny, and let's face it: anytime you get a chance to see a new film starring Sam Rockwell, you jump on it.

| Jun 23, 2020

Rockwell is adrift in this messy crime caper.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 5, 2019

It's Rockwell who makes the movie, zany and playful, and carrying with him both a hint of vulnerability and a whiff of danger.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 17, 2019

The film may not be as clever and shocking as it wants to be, but it's a bit of fun to watch this cast as a crew of often inept criminals.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 29, 2018

Unless you're a die hard Rockwell fan, "Blue Iguana" offers up very little.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 11, 2018

It acquits itself well enough for an enjoyable evening's entertainment.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 9, 2018

It is a story seemingly meant to be funny but only fitfully successful in this mission, and way too pleased with its own brand of deadpan wisecracking.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 3, 2018

The film's only reason to exist seems to be a series of increasingly grisly slow-motion shootouts.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 2, 2018

Blue Iguana grates on pretty much every level, a misjudged hodge-podge of ill-defined characters, tired filmmaking licks and an air of general unpleasantness. It also contains one of the worst shootouts in recent memory.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 2, 2018

Overall, the major value in Blue Iguana is watching a great comedic ensemble play with their words and toy with one another. When it does that, the movie works well. I just wish it did that more.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 22, 2018

Attempting to employ a frenetic pace to mask a lack of narrative coherence, the ultraviolent film boils down to a collection of unsympathetic characters doing unrealistic things.

| Sep 7, 2018

Blue Iguana isn't a film that will blow your mind, but in these dark times, it'll give you a welcome and well-executed distraction.

| Aug 30, 2018

A vapid, witless and mostly unfunny dark comedy. At least it's shorter than Pulp Fiction, one of the most overrated and shallow films ever made.

| Original Score: 3.83412437/10 | Aug 30, 2018

If you want a complex plot that makes sense with characters who are more three dimensional than comic caricatures, you'll have to look elsewhere.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 24, 2018

Yet another in a long series of 10th-rate Tarantino knockoffs, this wretched crime-comedy is confusing, ugly, and noisy. And despite Rockwell's welcome presence, it doesn't have any worthwhile characters.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 24, 2018

Rockwell and Fox are very funny and very strange together. You get weirdly invested in them.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 24, 2018

Who wouldn't want a "Desperately Seeking Susan" meets "Reservoir Dogs"? Alas, this ends up more "The Linguini Incident" meets "The Boondock Saints," an imitation of wan imitations.

| Aug 24, 2018

A talky comedy caper that manages to travel from quirky to irritating in no time flat.

| Aug 23, 2018

A tedious mess.
