Critics Consensus: A terrifically original, eccentric screwball comedy, Raising Arizona may not be the Coens' most disciplined movie, but it's one of their most purely entertaining.

Reviews

Rob's Movie Vault

Rob Gonsalves

Amiably gonzo pretty much nonstop.

Coens have not achieved the maturity needed to appreciate the vision of a Capra or Sturges, and their gifts are too rich and deep for the likes of Heckle and Jeckle.

What we get from the opening sequence of 'Raising Arizona' is the brilliance of Burwells score, the poetic storytelling of Hi, and Sonnenfelds imposing camera work. The opening sequence to Raising Arizona could be a short film in and of itself.

The Coen's best pure comedy, driven by that great chase scene (35th anniversary)

Raising Arizona is a funny, charming film with a strong visual style, delightful performances, and a unique sense of humor.
