Bunny (Bette Davis), a widow, turns to a life of crime after the bank forecloses on her house and she discovers that her grown children have frittered away her life's savings. Then she crosses paths with Bill Green (Ernest Borgnine), who is interested in harvesting the metal from the house's plumbing fixtures. Eventually, Bunny discovers that Bill is actually a bank robber wanted by the police, but rather than turn him in, she asks to learn the art of thievery, and soon they become a team.

There are moments when you don't hear the clank and grind. But only moments. Go to Full Review
Vincent Canby New York Times 01/01/2020
Bunny O'Hare is nonsense of a quite acceptable order, filled with absurd chases and stock characters who have been conceived and played with affection. Go to Full Review
Richard R. Harmetz Los Angeles Free Press 01/10/2020
Completely misses any real opportunity to satirize such obvious targets as hippies, bankers, police, demonstrations, motorcycles, bank robbery movies, and the camper culture. Go to Full Review
Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press 10/19/2018
Bette Davis and Ernest Borgnine play a Bonnie and Clyde of the Geritol set and the result is about as satisfying as a bad television show. Go to Full Review
