Take away the violence, ribald humor and salty language, and 800 Bullets is actually a touching tale about family, love and honor.
63
Has funny moments, but it also has a lot of drag time.
60
An acid-dipped valentine to the sometimes seedy magic of movies.
60
Though the high-noon climax drags somewhat, Álex de la Iglesia's charming comedy celebrates the resilient power of dreams, memories, and the movies.
50
Entirely too well-behaved.
50
An uneven but exuberantly anarchic comedy homage to the spaghetti Western.
40
It thinks it's cute, but it's as charming as an old drunk going on about how he knew Eastwood back in the day.

Quizás la película mas infravalorada de Álex. El tono cómico entre la relación del abuelo con el niño está muy acertada y la película se muestra entretenida de principio a fin. Alocada y disparatada, no esperéis un western, es un comedia dentro del cine.
