The Long Goodbye Ratings & Reviews
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Altman holds genre clichés and conventions up to the light of modern life-and uses them as a prism to reveal its hidden tones.
Crooked Marquee
Sean Burns
A logical (if less romantic) extension of Chandler's vision of Marlowe as the last hurrah for chivalry in a fallen, postwar world.
Stream on Demand
Sean Axmaker
Robert Altmans film, scripted and streamlined by Leigh Brackett (who helped adapt IThe Big SleepI for Howard Hawks), reimagines Philip Marlowe as the last of the old school detectives in a world that has moved on.
The Film Yap
Christopher Lloyd
Robert Altman's modernized take on film noir is bleak and beautiful, though not the ha-ha send-up of the genre as it's been described.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
If the film holds together, it is largely because of Elliot Gould's ramshackle performance, which turns Marlowe into a figure who is both absurd and strangely compelling.
Edge Media Network
Frank J. Avella
The Long Goodbye is not just classic Altman, classic neo-Noir, and classic satire, it's one of the best and most underrated films of the 1970s.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The film is cynical, of course, but also oddly moralistic via its handling of the noble if disheveled protagonist.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
The film is so inventive in its situations and humor that its shortcomings - the blunt ideas at its core - don't become apparent before several viewings.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Judith Crist
The result, with some offbeat and thereby excellent casting, with the lagniappe of multi-leveled satire on the genre and its period, is a first-rate suspense melodrama.
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
Raymond Chandler's sentimental foolishness is the taking-off place for Robert Altman's heady, whirling sideshow of a movie, set in the early-seventies L.A. of the stoned sensibility.
The Dissolve
Noel Murray
The Long Goodbye as a whole peels back the surfaces of private-eye stories, paying special attention to their macho bluster and abused women.
The Hollywood Reporter
Alan R. Howard
The Long Goodbye is a gloriously inspired tribute to Hollywood that never loses sight of what Los Angeles has become.
Variety
Variety Staff
An uneven mixture of insider satire on the gumshow film genre, gratuitous brutality, and sledgehammer whimsy.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
Simultaneously an act of revisionism as well as a parody of then-revitalizing neo-noir.
Zap2it.com
Daniel Fienberg
The reluctant and satirical mystery is one of the great Los Angeles movies and makes a great compliment to, say, The Big Lebowski.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Droll, cunning and magnificently woozy.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The Long Goodbye attacks film noir with three of his most cherished tools: Whimsy, spontaneity and narrative perversity.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
[Altman] attempts the impossible and pulls it off.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Altman's generalized misanthropy fits uncomfortably with the overall noir universe.
