It isn't terribly deep, but it's witty and undeniably charming, and the cast is obviously having fun.

[Maverick] succeeds, just barely, on the good will of its stars and the sumptuousness of its Western locations. Sep 2, 2014 | Full Review…

By the time Donner crowds his climactic poker game with a bevy of veteran Western character actors, decades of movie tradition have been reduced to window dressing, and Maverick leaves you hungry for the real thing. Sep 2, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

[Gibson and Garner] can make you smile contentedly even when the script is wandering and they're just sort of standing around waiting for its next good part to develop. Sep 2, 2014 | Full Review…

Maverick is smart-alecky without being very smart. It's full of spoofy, har-dee-har-har ribaldries -- this film practically winks at you. Sep 2, 2014 | Full Review…

This movie doesn't have the wry kick of the TV show at its best. Too rich, too loaded, Maverick may have misplayed its cards, kept its eyes on the pot instead of the players. In movies, as in poker, you can't always trust a pat hand. Sep 2, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Maverick never takes itself seriously, which establishes the tone for serious fun. Goldman's screenplay is a model of ingenuity, setting increasingly complicated traps for the three leads, and rather amazed that they wriggle free. Sep 2, 2014 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

The script is notionally based on the old television series of the same name, but the screenwriter William Goldman, has produced something depressingly up to date in its incoherence, its crisis of confidence served up with a sickly grin. Nov 14, 2017 | Full Review…

Maverick is quintessential summer fare, an unpretentious no-brainer that relies mostly on the star wattage of Gibson, Foster and old reliable James Garner. Sep 2, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Goldman and director Richard Donner don't know when to stop mining a gag and to move on. That the film runs in excess of two hours is indicative of the filmmakers' love affair with scenes that don't work. Sep 2, 2014 | Full Review…

It's cleverly crafted, and you can't help enjoying it even when you know it's manipulating you as brazenly as a poker dealer with tricky fingers and a well-stacked deck. Sep 2, 2014 | Full Review…

Somewhere about halfway through Hour Two, you might find yourself looking at your watch and wondering, 'Like, when is this movie going to begin?' Sep 2, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…
