Walker Ratings & Reviews
Patheos
Eve Tushnet
I think the movie doesn't quite know what it wants to say about the idealism driving American military action. Unsurprisingly, it also has absolutely nothing to say about internal Nicaraguan politics...
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Excessive or not, the exhilaration and lyricism of its furious anger and wit are such that they could enlighten us all.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
A chore to endure.
Celluloid Dreams
Peter Canavese
A tightly paced, intuitive biopic, tonally reminiscent of 'Barry Lyndon' with a brilliant performance by Ed Harris. A true love-it-or-hate-it punk cinema extravaganza.
Slant Magazine
Budd Wilkins
Brutal, trenchant, and unsettlingly surreal, Alex Coxs Walker gets a spiffy new Blu-ray upgrade and a couple new bonus features from Criterion.
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
Walker is the dark, neurotic flipside of Repo Man, where the antiheroic title character is not interested in any form of individual self-expression other than a single-minded pursuit of fame and glory.

Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Cox and writer Rudy Wurlitzer get the politics right, but don't know how to clearly tell their story without seeming like loonies.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
The movie's fierce detractors must have been so disgusted that they weren't even willing to concede its strokes of genius.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Ed Harris in the lead role valiantly tries to make the best of a bad situation, but the cartoon dimensions of the story leave him twisting in the wind.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Some bad movies are in no hurry to announce themselves, but Walker declares its badness right from the opening titles.
