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

Frank M Great movie with amazing acting and storyline, unsure of the negative reviews Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review Nicholas I Lots of Coen brothers comparisons being thrown around. 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. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/29/24 Full Review Marko A Refreshing. Will for sure keep you on your toes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/22/24 Full Review Nate H Last ten minutes kind of undo a lot of the character arcs simply to avoid pulling a Fifth Element (protagonist and antagonist never actually meeting), but the rest of the movie makes for a decent time, one that does get better as it progresses and everyone settles into the characters and narrative. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/26/24 Full Review Blaine S A modern western, with grit and a dash of dark comedy. Think southern Fargo without the Minnesota dialect. The actors are spot on for their respective parts. I enjoyed the ending, but could be easily convinced it should have been better. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/10/24 Full Review Read all reviews
