Mojave Ratings & Reviews
Slashfilm
Angie Han
As failures go, Mojave is a pretty interesting one. But it's a failure nonetheless.
The Film Stage
Jordan Raup
While not all of these work cohesively, Monahan's particular rhythm of language makes Mojave a bizarrely compelling watch.
MLive.com
John Serba
Monahan has an ear for loaded and clever dialogue, an eye for intimidating landscapes and a feel for the desolation of the soul.
San Diego Union-Tribune
Anders Wright
Monahan remains a better writer than director, unable to create a thriller with real thrills, and leaning toward characters that seem stilted - unfortunate considering the caliber of the players.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
In his second directorial effort, "Mojave," Monahan has no ... map to follow, and he wanders in a land of sophomoric pretentiousness and banal profundities.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
There is something kind of funny about these two bro-styled men arguing about the accuracy of a George Bernard Shaw quote while kicking the crap out of each other, but I'm not sure how much Monahan knows that, smart as he is.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Its tone wavers wildly from serious to silly, and its half-baked climax comes off like a bad party trick.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
It would better to call it Two Actors in Search of a Story.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Does it add up? Not really, but it passes the time nicely, working best when Mr. Monahan keeps it vague and off-kilter as his characters roam among the Hollywood ghosts.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Like the high desert that provides its main setting, William Monahan's "Mojave" is dry, often windy and full of hot air.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Prickly, suspenseful, even coolly humorous, "Mojave" finds noirish fun in the existential woes of a successful artist and old-fashioned movie pleasure in the parry and thrust of sharp dialogue.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
In the cast, only Isaac makes a vivid impression, in a swaggery, relaxed turn that seems to imply that he's in on the joke, or at least having a good time.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Monahan gives Hedlund and in particular Isaac dozens upon dozens of rich, intricate lines, and they're both up to the task and then some.
NPR
Ella Taylor
On the plus side, the Mojave desert looks mighty handsome, and I really liked the twangy guitar.
Film Journal International
Nick Schager
Oscar Isaac's over-the-top performance as a menacing drifter can't save this turgid neo-noir western.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Ultimately, "Mojave" is little more than a B movie with pretensions.
TIME Magazine
Stephanie Zacharek
Monahan's sense of humor is as dark and bitter as a burnt espresso, and he has a taste for grim violence. But he still has a great deal of feeling for his characters, and that's the key to Mojave.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Does the movie know it's a joke?
Observer
Rex Reed
Posing as a bogus thriller without one line of believable dialogue or one single thrill, Mojave is 93 minutes of gibberish with guns and phony literary pretentiousness about two thugs in a duel of weapons and words that goes nowhere fast.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
With the film, director William Monahan offers audiences a bundle of fetishes dressed up as an existentialist thriller about the class system.
