Arizona might have worked better as a smart-ass social commentary if its tsk-tsking of consumerist myopia wasn't so consistently on the nose and its plot didn't swiftly devolve into slasher movie cliches. Go to Full Review

This 85-minute, "Ten Little Indian"-style comedy-horror mash-up is basically a cameo-studded muddle that may have looked good on paper, but movie screens aren't made of paper. Go to Full Review
Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 08/24/2018
Severely wasting the talents of Rosemary DeWitt, who really, really deserves better material, Arizona is as arid and barren as the state that provides its title. Go to Full Review
Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review 06/23/2020
The closer you look at Arizona, the less funny and escapist it becomes, and I'm certain that's by design. The exercise doesn't always work, but when it does, it can sting. Go to Full Review

4/5
Arizona is a dark comedy thriller that works on both sides of the coin, with the dark comedy working well and the thriller part being decent. Go to Full Review

Often grotesque and thoroughly witless. Go to Full Review

Fred S @MT_Tank Dec 8 More girl power crap. Every male is incompetent, even the villian. The political points are so heavy handed I felt like I was at a Socialist fundraiser held by Gloria Steinem. "Man weak. Woman strong. Capitalism bad." Repeated for an hour plus See more Rachel O Aug 22 Great action movie. The psychological unraveling of the villain is done very well for a movie. He doesn't start off completely horrible, he gets there mentally over time. My only complaint is the ending. So many people try to save the day and get killed, and then the way they finally stop his rampage is sub par considering all the chaos surrounding them. See more Shelby E Aug 1 A thrilling take on the 2008 housing market crash, and better than most films released in the last 15 years (2025 review). This movie follows a man with nothing to lose while slowly revealing his underlying psychopathic edge. The tension builds steadily as the story exposes the darker side of ambition and desperation. Strong performances from the cast and a rock-solid production team which definitely elevated the film. Well worth the watch. See more thiago s @Thiagostone May 12 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, os personagens sao fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom. See more Dec 30 A good movie. It IS a dark comedy. Not like a laugh out loud one but very amusing and just an interesting tale. It's worth a watch for sure but isn't going to win any Oscars anytime soon, lol. See more Lucas S 03/24/2024 The kind of thing that if see in a toilet you will flush it See more Read all reviews
