Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Kurt Loder (858) for Reason Online (497) on 04 May 2011

Once you've taken in the title, you've pretty much gotten the joke…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Jen Yamato (145) for Movieline (883) on 04 May 2011

Hit the B-movie sweet spot just right, as Jason Eisener mostly does in his gleefully gory Hobo with a Shotgun, and you could find yourself…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 04 May 2011

Moralists, beware. Hobo looks like a garish cartoon puked up by a filmmaker overstuffed with cheap thrills and celluloid scuzz. What's not to like…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Noel Murray (1,901) for AV Club (2,778) on 04 May 2011

It's a hyper-violent, self-conscious throwback, with the sickly plastic aroma of a tape that's been gathering dust in the corner of a video…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Scott Tobias (1,684) for NPR (1,713) on 04 May 2011

There's something pure about the crude pleasures of Hobo with a Shotgun, a pre-fab cult film that aspires to nothing more (or less) than the…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Marc Savlov (2,019) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 04 May 2011

It's an ode, of sorts, to Seventies grindhouse cinema, curdled and gooey and tailor-made for midnight showings (preferably with a crowd, preferably…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Marshall Fine (1,011) for Hollywood & Fine (854) on 03 May 2011

The brilliance begins and ends with its title..feels less like a movie than a joke about a movie, to which you need to buy a ticket to see…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Eric Kohn (1,203) for Indiewire (3,631) on 03 May 2011

Loaded to the gills with thrill-inducing mayhem, Hobo with a Shotgun feels almost tribal in its commitment to violence…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 03 May 2011

There's a pomo twist to the whole overeager enterprise, in all its theoretical, film-school charm: Similar to 2010's Machete, the movie was…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Keith Uhlich (870) for Time Out (7,510) on 02 May 2011

Two monologues-one in which the Hobo compares himself to a bear, the other a Travis Bickle–like screed delivered to a roomful of increasingly…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Mark Holcomb (179) for Village Voice (8,525) on 02 May 2011

Pick a reason to balk at this spot-on, garishly threadbare paean to '80s no-budget sleaze…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Rex Reed (1,506) for New York Observer (1,400) on 02 May 2011

Quite the most appalling piece of junk I have seen lately, Hobo With a Shotgun just lies there like an autopsy…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Andrew Barker (315) for Variety (12,700) on 01 May 2011

One must grudgingly admire director Jason Eisener's willingness to go over the top and beyond, and the film certainly delivers what it promises…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Liam Lacey (1,725) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 01 May 2011

In its mocking but acutely observed style, Hobo is a well-designed cinematic mess: There are whiplash jump cuts, patches where the sound almost…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By David Edelstein (2,124) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 01 May 2011

There's something appealing about the movie's unpretentious carnival of carnage, although I could have done without the flamethrower assault…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Duane Byrge (235) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 01 May 2011

A generic blast, Hobo with a Shotgun unspools like a spaghetti western but amped with enough testosterone to fill a video-game warehouse…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Steve Ramos (98) for Boxoffice Magazine (2,896) on 01 May 2011

Hobo is trash cinema through and through and gives fans everything they want from a drive-in throwback. That's something that doesn't happen often…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Harvey S. Karten (2,210) for Compuserve (1,948) on 17 Apr 2011

A grindhouse-style slasher pic lacking style and wit…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Rob Gonsalves (1,031) for eFilmCritic.com (5,125) on 17 Apr 2011

With Hauer in the role, Hobo's manic gore-streaked hyperbole begins to make sense…

Review of Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

By Bill Gibron (1,013) for PopMatters (2,617) on 14 Apr 2011
