LaRoy, Texas | Rotten Tomatoes (original) (raw)

Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News “LaRoy, Texas” remains as unpredictable as an overly agitated Texas rattlesnake and has just about as much bite to it. Rated: 3/4 Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com Atkinson’s hilarious feature debut is a barn burner of a western-thriller whose Coen Brothers-inspired nods give life to its meek protagonist. Rated: 3/4 Apr 12, 2024 Full Review Phil Hoad Guardian If Atkinson isn’t quite the Coen inheritor he aspires to be, this hectic flurry of schemers, snatchers and low-lifes puts him three-quarters of the way to inventing a new genre: Texan noir farce. Rated: 3/5 Apr 8, 2024 Full Review Kat Halstead Common Sense Media LaRoy, Texas is full of Coen brothers-style charm, with its dark humor, absurd interludes, and existential middle-of-nowhere location combined with a solid level of bloody violence and characters you can't help but root for. Jul 9, 2024 Full Review Calum Baker Radio Times A uniformly excellent cast keeps the pace going, right to the inevitably bloody climax. Rated: 4/5 Jul 1, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Zany Coen brothers-like comedy thriller. Rated: B+ May 20, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

This is no Fargo. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Bernard D I really enjoyed this movie. Great casting and solid plot. Had a bit of a Fargo season 1 feel.
