Kyle Logan Chicago Reader Americana delivers as an enjoyable neo-western with some things to say and requisite genre thrills, but it’s unlikely to be remembered. Aug 25, 2025 Full Review Brianna Zigler AV Club The clichéd, forgettable work neither succeeds as a spoof nor as an earnest genre exercise by a wannabe indie-phenom wannabe. Rated: D+ Aug 18, 2025 Full Review Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle Though Hauser and Sweeney can’t exactly save the movie, they keep it from derailing. Rated: 3/4 Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Brian Cartwright Daily Grindhouse Tony Tost’s AMERICANA feels like an old friend standing in front of an open Coleman cooler in summer and simply asking us, “Beer?” Hell yeah, Tony. I’ll take a beer. Rated: A Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Jeff Mitchell Phoenix Film Festival Tost’s feature film debut is a wild, violent yarn that ties in colorful characters and an elusive shirt. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 1, 2025 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times The principal weakness of neo-Western "Americana" is its insistence on presenting characters a tad too colorful to be fully believable. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 31, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
