Stefan Kanfer TIME Magazine There are some men whose tragedy arises not from what they suffer but what they fail to feel. Little Fauss and Big Halsy are such men -- and so are those who made the movie. Jul 22, 2013 Full Review Vincent Canby New York Times In this context it is difficult to understand character or admire characterization. Rated: 2/5 Jul 22, 2013 Full Review Variety Staff Variety Hampered by a thin screenplay, film is padded further by often-pretentious direction by Sidney J. Furie against expansive physical values. Jul 22, 2013 Full Review Richard Schickel LIFE It's a fine, tough, funny movie, distinguished by Furie's extraordinary feel for empty spaces and the empty people that inhabit them, by strong acting, most of all by the success with which it makes an unfamiliar milieu familiar. Aug 30, 2019 Full Review TV Guide Little Fauss and Big Halsy is a mixed bag, with a helter skelter plot but nicely coordinated motorcycle action and some good background music by Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, and Bob Dylan. Rated: 2/4 Jul 22, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Shioka O With this poor rate, no-one expect anything from this film, and actually it's not unwatchable. Tbh, I don't hate this another forgotten New Hollywood. Harmless and nothing happen. The ending is sketchy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/11/22 Full Review Audience Member For those who remembers TNT's movies for guys, this movie fits the bill. The main theme is how to avoid friends who take advantage of others and how others should not be guillible to believe these friends. Sometimes one have to take a stand to avoid people taking advantage of one's good nature. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review delysid d given the low score, you would think this is a bad movie or something. it's actually great Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/05/22 Full Review Audience Member It is a cult! Fast bikes, naked girls, classic characters, what else do you want? A must watch! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a guy's flick. Period. If you happen to be from No. CA, and were of Nam draft age, road bikes hard, did the same to chicks; like wildness and yet are sensitive, hate authority and BS, then this mixed bag is nostalgic to the hilt. A chilling short shot of an aircraft carrier leaving S.F. near the Golden Gate defies all the gaffs and goofiness. Good acting and out of character for both these dudes..(particularly the green-weenie nowadays "Halsy." Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A great look at Redford while he was still willing to play unsympathetic characters. He supposedly hates the film, but he's great in it playing of man of great looks, some charm, and minimal morals. Pollard and Hutton are very good as well as is the Johnny Cash song for the film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
