Even considered as no more than an assembly-line Hollywood product, The Bounty Hunter falls well below factory standards.

You know it's bad when a caper comedy makes you long for the Goldie Hawn-Chevy Chase showcases of yore...

Rotten
There'll be worse films released in 2010 -- but not many.
Tom Huddleston, Time Out
Rotten
The story of a bail enforcer who captures his newspaper-reporter ex-wife manages to be both formulaic and patchwork, with whatever twinkles that exist between the stars eclipsed by the overall crudeness.
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Rotten
The film is stuffed with these idiosyncratic micro-roles (I loved Siobhan Fallon Hogan as the bondsman's secretary), which prove more diverting than the two main characters.
