Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
John Huston's Prizzi's Honor packs love, sex, and murder -- and dark comedy -- into a labyrinthine tale.

rotten:
As usual, Turner works hard and manages to lend some conviction to a shoddily written part, but she can't connect with Nicholson, whose obscure hamminess leaves him isolated on some other planet.
– Dave Kehr,
Chicago Reader,

fresh:
This is the most bizarre comedy in many a month, a movie so dark, so cynical and so funny that perhaps only Jack Nicholson and Kathleen Turner could have kept straight faces during the love scenes.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

fresh:
A very stylish walk with love and death.
