Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's sleek, briskly paced, firmly controlled and shrewdly dosed with humor, action and romance.
– Dave Kehr,
Chicago Tribune,

fresh:
The film's strength is director Jim McBride's seemingly easy way of presenting us with a New Orleans that is more malevolent and intoxicating than the tourist trap that some think it to be.
– Gene Siskel,
Chicago Tribune,
31 Jul 2013
fresh:
The Big Easy is as atmospheric as they come, but -- surprise! -- it's also sharp and swift. Plus, it has ample amounts of chemistry -- the steamy, sexy kind.
– Jay Boyar,
Orlando Sentinel,
31 Jul 2013
fresh:
The Big Easy is an extremely enjoyable (and well-lubricated) vehicle for two actors who aren't quite yet stars, but should be.
– Carrie Rickey,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
31 Jul 2013
fresh:
Until conventional plot contrivances begin to spoil the fun, The Big Easy is a snappy, sassy battle of the sexes in the guise of a melodrama about police corruption.
