Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The movie simply never comes together and works as a whole. The material is terribly thin.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
23 Oct 2004
fresh:
Junior Bonner, based on an excellent original screenplay by Jeb Rosebrook, is Peckinpah in the benignly comic mood that, I suspect, is much more the natural fashion of this fine director than is the gross, intellectualized mayhem.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
Junior Bonner may be the least Peckinpah-like in content, but it's very much like his other work in spirit.
– Keith Phipps,
AV Club,
30 May 2001
fresh:
A film filled to overflowing with small, subtle beauties.
