Wagons East Ratings & Reviews
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
[An] anemic Blazing Saddles-wannabe.
Philadelphia Daily News
Gary Thompson
Awful. A candidate for one of the year's worst movies.
Baltimore Sun
Stephen Wigler
The jokes tend to be watered-down versions of the tasteless kind that enlivened the Naked Gun movies and the early films of Mel Brooks.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Roger Hurlburt
Although a comedy rife in lively characters, Wagons East! affords star John Candy one of the poorest, drabest, and thoroughly unfunniest roles of his career.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
A poorly focused and rhythmless collection of vignettes, Wagons East! does contain a few funny ideas and some decent performances that simply are not enough to rescue the movie.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
A stridently unfunny western comedy that is equally lame in its writing and direction.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
There's little to praise in Peter Markle's handling of Matthew Carlson's heavy-handed screenplay.
TV Guide
A wagon train of disgruntled pioneers returning to the East is the incidental setting for tired, adolescent humor in this ponderous and directionless comedy.
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
With credits that include such garbage as Hot Dog... The Movie, director and former hockey player Peter Markle displays an utter lack of comic sensibility.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
A sunshiney hodgepodge of bad jokes, nice scenery and reverse stereotypes.
Los Angeles Times
Chris Willman
A typically rickety vehicle, just dumb enough that it actually submerges Candy's sweet, perky persona in what's basically a sullen, grizzled straight-man role.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Everyone's creative burners were on low heat for this woeful outing.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
[A] broken-down nag of a movie.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Wagons East! has the distinction of being Candy's final film, and it is dedicated to his memory. That, unfortunately, is its only distinction.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
One of the least amusing comedies I've ever seen.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
A ghastly western parody that does not honor Uncle Buck's memory, but exploits his last, pitiable appeal for laughter.
Austin Chronicle
Robert Faires
Worst of all, the film devotes the time between gags to schmaltzing up the characters with attempts at tenderness and drama.
