Patheos

Eve Tushnet

I think the movie doesn’t quite know what it wants to say about the idealism driving American military action. Unsurprisingly, it also has absolutely nothing to say about internal Nicaraguan politics...

Excessive or not, the exhilaration and lyricism of its furious anger and wit are such that they could enlighten us all.

A chore to endure.

A tightly paced, intuitive biopic, tonally reminiscent of 'Barry Lyndon' with a brilliant performance by Ed Harris. A true love-it-or-hate-it punk cinema extravaganza.

Brutal, trenchant, and unsettlingly surreal, Alex Coxs Walker gets a spiffy new Blu-ray upgrade and a couple new bonus features from Criterion.
