It begins with a meet-cute and ends with a murder, and sandwiched in between those emotional extremes are romance, regret and revenge.

Jonathan Demme's picaresque joyride across the American landscape is still arguably the best thing he's ever done.
Pat Graham, Chicago Reader
Fresh
Demme observes the human eccentricity that underlies the corner-store banalities of Middle America with warmth and loving detail; while a magnificent rock soundtrack and faultless performances from Daniels, Griffith and Liotta ensure pleasures galore.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten
The film's principal difficulty is E. Max Frye's original screenplay, which is better thought out in terms of its narrative than of the characters.
Vincent Canby, New York Times
Fresh
Demme is a master of finding the bizarre in the ordinary.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
