To be a low budget movie, this one is kind of great. I'll rather see this one again, than any John Wick slayer.

I loved the action and enjoyed the pensive musings of the two lead characters.

Glacial pacing, amateurish action sequences, banal script and plot, terrible acting and narrative, and a contrived romantic angle. This movie has been made a thousand times by for more creative filmmakers. To call this a "B movie" is to insult all other B movies, and the letter B. I can only assume that with Covid, and the dearth of quality films, that is why any critic would even acknowledge this "film."

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

This little gem of a film was more film noir than anything else. Caouette did a fantastic job of directing and starring in it. Although he's not a conventional good looking movie star I'd like to see him in more similar productions as he can obviously carry off being the main character.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Film Threat

Perhaps the overly familiar, weakly developed plot will leave some viewers disappointed. Still, those open to B-movie action will be elated to hear that the movie succeeds where it counts.

Rated: 7/10

Ready Steady Cut

Canadian gangster film with more emphasis on action than plot, but yet the action still didn't make it exciting.

Rated: 1.5

Eye for Film

Though it functions as a good demonstration of directorial skill in some areas, American Badger is ultimately a film that we've seen many times before.

Rated: 2.5/5

As over familiar the story might be, there are plenty of flashes of inspiration, particularly within the action, that sets American Badger apart from the average.

Rated: 3/5

Kirk Caouette's hitman movie is at once an action extravaganza and moody existential noir.
