Variety | Dennis HarveyAdd Critic to Favorites

All this sounds like a surefire recipe for knowing, trashy fun, but something got burnt in the oven.Read the full review

ReelViews | James BerardinelliAdd Critic to Favorites

The film has energy but isn't well paced. Nothing about it quite gels.Read the full review

Washington Post | John AndersonAdd Critic to Favorites

After all the bloated lines are delivered, and dozens of women are debased, and Bishop has attitudinized the story line into incomprehensibility, audience members will be asking themselves how they got on this Hell Ride and what they did to deserve it.Read the full review

The Hollywood Reporter | Justin LoweAdd Critic to Favorites

Lacks sufficient substance to be of more than quickly passing interest for all but the most devoted fans.Read the full review

The Onion (A.V. Club) | Keith PhippsAdd Critic to Favorites

A witless reprise of '60s and '70s biker movies.Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Mark OlsenAdd Critic to Favorites

The film gets the scummy patina right, all phony-Leone dusty trails, but while everybody on screen looks to be enjoying themselves, it is no fun to watch.Read the full review

It's depressingly self-conscious and turgid, and a cast that includes Dennis Hopper, David Carradine, Michael Madsen and Eric Balfour can't drag Hell Ride out of the mire.Read the full review

Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites

The movie was executive produced by Quentin Tarantino. Shame on him. He intends it no doubt as another homage to grindhouse pictures, but I've seen a lot of them, and they were nowhere near this bad. "Hell's Angels on Wheels," for example: pretty good.Read the full review

San Francisco Chronicle | Ruthe SteinAdd Critic to Favorites

A pile of junk.Read the full review

Boston Globe | Wesley MorrisAdd Critic to Favorites

It's a self-amused, self-conscious, seriously limp throwback to motorcycle westerns of the 1970s.Read the full review
