Pink Cadillac is rich in character, containing some of the most heartfelt and engaging moments in an Eastwood film.

As a deeply personal work about free-floating existential identities, this 1989 film has the kind of grit and feeling that few action comedies can muster, with Eastwood and Peters interesting and unpredictable throughout.

Painless but dumb chase flick

Pretty forgettable Eastwood runs out of gas.

It is the laziest sort of action comedy, with lumbering chase scenes, a dull-witted script and the charmless pairing of Mr. Eastwood and Bernadette Peters.

Too violent for a comedy and without the insights that could have turned this into a charmer, Pink Cadillac never gels, and Eastwood struggles to make his rough bounty hunter with a heart of gold at all convincing.

An overlong, undercooked action comedy made out of retooled parts from other film vehicles.

Calling Pink Cadillac dumb is an insult to dumb movies.

It's weightlessly, irredeemably enjoyable.

There's little that's new in the material, and nobody seems to have asked whether the emotional charge of blatant racism belongs in a lightweight story like this -- even if the racists are the villains.
