The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Rex Reed, New York Observer: Movies don't get any worse than Charlie Countryman. Read more
Ben Kenigsberg, AV Club: There's not really a story here, just a series of shaggy-dog incidents that typically end with LaBeouf being beaten, hit by a car, or suspended upside-down over water. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: Even though you learn that Charlie is absolute aces at running from bad guys, the character pretty much remains a confusing, empty vessel. As does the movie. Read more
Justin Lowe, Hollywood Reporter: With a scruffy demeanor and wide-eyed enthusiasm, LaBeouf projects a degree of emotional recklessness that's both disarming and disconcerting to watch. Read more
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times: Pulpy dross of surpassing dumbness, "Charlie Countryman" takes the blender approach to mixing dark adventure, doofus comedy and pie-eyed romance, but forgets to put the lid on when pulsed. Read more
Bruce Diones, New Yorker: LaBeouf, who throws himself whole-heartedly into every role regardless of its worth, is a fearless and fascinating actor, and his sincerity holds the entire sleazy mess together. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: Thanks to a perfectly-matched lead, Shia LaBeouf, the movie makes enough impact to justify its existence. Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: This catastrophe of a movie zigzags drunkenly between action-adventure and surreal comedy with some magical realism slopped over it like ketchup. Read more
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer: There's underworld intrigue, and Bucharest gets to show itself off nicely. Read more
Bruce Ingram, Chicago Sun-Times: Ah, Bucharest. That exotic, Eastern European hotbed of romance, intrigue and hefty film-production tax breaks. Read more
Sam Adams, Time Out: It's an engrossing, overstuffed disaster-sometimes captivating, sometimes too ingeniously terrible to turn away from; it's like watching a car wreck in slow motion, if both cars were stuffed with confetti. Read more
Inkoo Kang, Village Voice: Charlie Countryman is an ode to an ideal no one over 16 actually believes. Read more
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture: However you cut it, with all that talent, Charlie Countryman feels like a sad, wasted opportunity. Read more
