      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      The Highwaymen depicts law enforcement's side of the Bonnie and Clyde manhunt -- a story that's unfortunately not quite as entertaining despite its marquee leads.

      John L Awesome watch. Needs several viewings to pick up the subtleties in the characters. Doesn't get any better. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/24 Full Review Chris H When did Woody Harrelson become one of the elder statesmen of the screen? It's a position he fills very well, here playing a seasoned lawman alongside his old buddy, played by a grouchy Kevin Costner. An interesting retelling of the Bonnie and Clyde story, with the fairy tale element removed and those clamouring to see and touch the murderous couple being revealed as the ghouls they are. Bonnie and Clyde syndrome, indeed. It's a slow burn but the chemistry between the two leads makes it well worth the watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review Koen H I didn't enjoy it as much as i would expect for a movie with Woody.. It passed a bit slow, but all in all it was good. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/24 Full Review Audience Member Costner is such a dog. Plays anything country so well Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/06/24 Full Review emma c well done. well cast. kevin costner does his one persona, but does it well. good writing and directing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Art A Superb drama. Tense. Well crafted. Very highly recommended. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Christy Lemire FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A lot of why this works is because of [Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson's] chemistry together. Sep 23, 2019 Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson on a mission to hunt down Bonnie and Clyde? It's a hard idea to hate, and this Netflix movie is easy enough to enjoy. Apr 12, 2019 Full Review Christopher Orr The Atlantic It's hardly an insult to acknowledge that The Highwaymen is no classic on the level of Bonnie and Clyde. But it is, in its way, the perfect corrective to Penn's film. Apr 2, 2019 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies I get the inevitable complaints of “too slow” and “not enough action”. Yet I found myself loving it – the slow burn, the prickly Costner, the subtle moral questions it tosses out there. Rated: 4.5/5 Aug 21, 2022 Full Review Lonita Cook KCTV5 News at 9 Kevin Costner and [Woody Harr;elson, how can you go wrong?... they both do what they do well. Sep 30, 2021 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times "The Highwaymen" portrays the more upright ethics of the Depression era, law enforcement and media-wise, and feels vastly more realistic than its famous 1967 "Bonnie and Clyde" cinematic predecessor. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 26, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
