Critic Reviews for The Escape of Prisoner 614
All Critics (10) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (8)
Writer/director Zach Golden, making his feature debut, does all right by the silly but warmhearted character dynamics and the retro-diner humanism.
A handful of fine actors are wasted in the limp comedy "The Escape of Prisoner 614," a period picture that never figures out exactly what it's spoofing.
A pastiche of western tropes too tongue-in-cheek to sell its dramatic intentions, but just sincere enough to smother any intimations of parody, "The Escape of Prisoner 614" never commits to a consistent tone.
This satirical, modern-day Western induces a few mild chuckles but mostly wastes the talents of its cast.
More of an absurdist comedy than an uproarious one, this mostly works because McDorman and Starr play things completely seriously.
... doesn't have the satirical dexterity to generate any substance beyond its slapstick shenanigans.
Audience Reviews for The Escape of Prisoner 614
Kind of a letdown given what I could hope of from a Ron Perlman/Martin Starr team-up, but pretty much exactly as bad as I suspected it might be based on the trailer.
