unrelentingly smug, for no good reason

Paper-thin and insubstantial ... but still full of good-natured fun.

Mel Gibson is delightful as the charming rambling gambler Bret Maverick in this big-screen remake of the beloved 1950s TV series.
01/01/00
A refreshing addition to the rejuvenated genre.

Maverick may be as close as anything comes to a perfect summer movie (as opposed to a perfect movie).

Top CriticAffectionate, amiable, eager-to-please, in a TV-movieish sort of way.
01/01/00
This is a rollicking, Saturday afternoon adventure, the quintessential summer movie.
01/01/00
A gaudy reincarnation of the TV series with Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster and James Garner flashing diamonds, breaking hearts and clubbing cliches damn near to death.

Top CriticThe first lighthearted, laugh-oriented family Western in a long time, and one of the nice things about it is, it doesn't feel the need to justify its existence. It acts like it's the most natural thing in the world to be a Western.

Top CriticWhat summer movies are generally meant to be: big, light entertainment.
01/01/00
Ho hum.
