Review of Johnny Handsome (1989) by Jonathan Rosenbaum for Chicago Reader — 26 Feb 2004
Walter Hill directed this 1989 feature from a pulpy script by Ken Friedman (based on John Godey’s novel The Three Worlds of Johnny Handsome), and its nasty, predictable plot and unpleasant characters aren’t made any more bearable by Hill’s customary smoke, sweat, funk, and neon.
