GREAT ACTING ,COWBOY OF HEART OR WESTERN FAN ,YOU SHOULD ENJOY THIS FILM . FROM THE COMEDY TO THE SHOTS OF MONTANA - JUST GREAT ALL WAY AROUND. BRIDGES AND STANTON -WONDER-FULL . 47 YEARS OLD ,FIRST TIME WATCH AND FIRST TIME ON ROTTEN T. WAS COMPELLED TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE MOVIE . ---- UNDER RATED! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review jon c Too slow and not enough to hold my interest Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review ashley h Rancho Deluxe is a disappointing film. It is about two drifters who rustle cattle and try to avoid being caught in contemporary Montana. Jeff Bridges and Sam Waterston give terrible performances. The script is badly written. Frank Perry did a horrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I worked as a theater usher back in '75 when this came out so I saw it again and again and again. On re-viewing it 40 years later I found it had not improved with age. Incomprehensible plot, forgettable acting, and gratuitous directorial stupidity round out the reasons not to see this. RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked it!! Early Jeff Bridges, fun to watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Pauline Kael New Yorker The film is a genuine curiosity, which is the only genuine thing about it. Oct 23, 2023 Full Review Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune "Rancho Deluxe" is more than Just a gag show. A lot of its humor is wistful and visual. Rated: 3/4 May 6, 2021 Full Review Charles Champlin Los Angeles Times The surprising thing about Frank Perry's "Rancho Deluxe" is that it has the courage of its concoctions, and gets away with them. May 6, 2021 Full Review Steve Warren The Barb (Atlanta) A fun western. May 9, 2023 Full Review Joe Leydon The Clarion-Ledger (Jackson, MS) Everyone seems positively delighted at their good fortune to be in such an enjoyable shaggy dog of a movie. Almost as delighted as you will be watching it. Aug 16, 2021 Full Review Dick Alexander San Francisco Examiner Perry... sacrifices early exposition for put-on and barely manages to wrap up the picture before time runs out.
