Critic Reviews of "Harsh Times"
New York ObserverNovember 15, 2006Harsh Times is an hour-by-hour diary of two crazy, unreliable, irresponsible dudes trying to find a way to fit into the same society they hate, facing one hurdle after another until they appear to butcher half of Los Angeles.
Ebert & RoeperNovember 13, 2006Jim is such a psycho and Mike is such a patsy, we don't care about these guys. We've seen dozens of more interesting head cases in dozens of smarter films.
Toronto StarNovember 10, 2006Harsh Times is so into its own nihilism, it sometimes forgets the humanity beneath the hurt.
Orlando SentinelNovember 10, 2006Endless scenes of the two guys riding along, venting and cursing and chugging beers play like acting-class exercises, badly written ones at that.
Seattle TimesNovember 10, 2006Ayer makes his directing debut with Harsh Times, which is so relentlessly grim that it occasionally goes over the top and invites derision.
San Francisco ChronicleNovember 10, 2006For a neophyte director, Ayer displays a lot of style.
CinemaBlend.comMay 05, 2008A crazy little film, modest in its scope but grand in its ambition. It paints it's story in loud primary colors, with intense pressure cooker characterizations.
Murphy's Movie ReviewsJuly 14, 2007HARSH TIMES is a portrait of a male-dominated world and inChristian Bale's fierce performance, Ayer has found the perfect actor. It's just unfortunate that the screenplay feels like a left-over from an era that has passed.
Eye for FilmJuly 09, 2007just like its protagonist, Harsh Times is fatally flawed, but in a manner that still remains compelling to watch.
culturevulture.netMarch 27, 2007A movie that seems gritty and pointless for its first third, begins to grow in meaning as the pointlessness snowballs into absurdity and then tragedy.
UGOMarch 24, 2007It's an amazing performance, one of the best of the year, with Bale truly making you believe in this over-the-top character.
Cinema em CenaDecember 29, 2006Por alguns instantes, o filme parece ter algo relevante a dizer sobre a desumanização provocada pela guerra ou o niilismo de uma geração entediada e descrente, mas constatamos que quer apenas chocar, desperdiçando as ótimas atuações de Bale e Rodriguez.
