Once Upon a Time in Venice has a little more of a spark than typical late-period Bruce Willis tough guy movies, but it's still a steep, disappointing tumble from his best work.

That hissing sound you hear is the air being let out of Bruce Willis as he struggles mightily to reconnect with once-vital action-comedy chops in the dim, unfunny Once Upon a Time in Venice. June 16, 2017 | Full Review…

Of course Willis employs his trademark smirk and his familiar sarcastic line readings. Of course we've seen him play variations on this downtrodden, wisecracking cynic in better movies. But B-movie Willis is still kind of a hoot. June 16, 2017 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Once Upon a Time in Venice frequently sags underneath its own general lethargy, and not even the snarkiest John McClane can fix that. June 16, 2017 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

It's as much a snapshot of a screwball neighborhood as it is a loose-ended shaggy dog story, with a weird, buoyant spirit that lifts it up over its somewhat sloppy storytelling. June 16, 2017 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

Bruce Willis barks up a number of wrong trees in this scattered, only sparsely amusing shaggy-dog mystery. June 15, 2017 | Full Review…

Stuff happens in Venice, but it never feels like it's building toward anything, either as a payoff for the setpieces it subjects us to or as a subversion of expected payoff. September 24, 2020 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

... the chaos and mish-mash of ideas takes over and not much is done to reign it in and make it into a movie that doesn't feel like a bit of a mess. April 17, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Once Upon a Time in Venice sports a truly incredible cast, who are then placed as cartoon characters in a shallow pastiche of crime stories. Enter a world where every person is defined by stereotype, yet still gets introduced by a narrator. January 9, 2020 | Full Review…

Based on the fun work being done by most of the cast, this could have been an entertaining little genre exercise with the right leading man. Instead, it's a sad reminder that Looper may be the last good movie Bruce Willis will ever make. July 17, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Not funny enough or crazy enough, when it could be a "gangsters stole my dog" B-movie caper; Bruce Willis is amiable, John Goodman underused. Buddy the dog doesn't make an appearance for ages -- he deserved better (and I'm a cat person). November 9, 2018 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…
