    Editorial Reviews:

    Amazon.com
    With Red Rock West and The Last Seduction, writer-director John Dahl established himself as America's leading maker of tough, twisted, funny little neo-noir pictures. Red Rock West is a spare, tight reworking of noirish motifs--the lone man caught in a web of circumstance and betrayal, the rich femme fatale, the corrupt policeman, the wounded military veteran, the homicidal psychopath--that brings to mind classics from Detour to Out of the Past to Bad Day at Black Rock. Cage--warming up for his career-peak (so far) performance in Leaving Las Vegas a few years later--plays an unemployed former Marine (his leg injured in the truck-bombing of the base in Beirut) who stumbles into a nightmarish situation when he stops at a bar in the isolated Wyoming town of Red Rock West. With one fateful step, he's trapped; and no matter how hard he tries, he just can't seem to leave town. The late J.T. Walsh is (as always) splendidly corrupt as the bar owner who harbors some deadly secrets, and Dennis Hopper does a variation on his patented Blue Velvet/River's Edge psycho that suits the treacherous environs of Red Rock West just fine. --Jim Emerson

    3 out of 5 stars Great Movie   July 1, 2009
    M. Arave
    This is a great little movie from early in Cage's career. A good cast and a surprising story.


    4 out of 5 stars Decent neo-noir   June 17, 2009
    One-Line Film Reviews (Ann Arbor)
    The Bottom Line:

    The supporting characters steal the show a bit from flat leads Nicholas Cage and Lara Flynn Boyle, but Red Rock West is still an enjoyable neo-noir from John Dahl (Kill Me Again, The Last Seduction) which doesn't throw in arbitrary twists to cheat the audience and is consistently interesting; all things considered, this is an entertaining piece of filmmaking.

    3/4



    5 out of 5 stars A Fun Noir Which Leaves You Shaking Your Head In Disbelief!   April 14, 2009
    Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
    This is an excellent modern-day film noir...."excellent" in that it's interesting, start-to-finish. There are some holes in here and some goofy parts that make you shake your head in disbelief.....but I haven't found anyone who didn't get caught up in this story. and enjoy the movie.

    The film has the right amount of action, suspense, plot twists and interesting characters. In addition, it sports some nice colors and cinematography plus a good guitar-based soundtrack.

    I labeled this crime movie a "film noir" because it's gritty and the all the characters are no good. Even the only supposed-good guy, played by Nicholas Cage, gets himself in trouble by lying and has a quick affair he should't have. He also does something at the end which isn't right, but I'm not going the spoil it by saying. Suffice to say, however, that the rest of the characters are so bad they make Cage look good!

    Speaking of "bad guys," does anyone do it better than Dennis Hopper? At least in the "deranged" category, he's tough to beat. Lara Flynn Boyle is fun to watch for a bunch of reasons. J.T. Walsh gives another great supporting performance, too.

    This is one of those films that never got much publicity, but it should have. You'll have fun watching this. By the way, try saying the name of this movie out loud three times fast without messing it up!



    5 out of 5 stars Red Rock West   November 11, 2008
    nicolascagefantothemax
    The sponsors of this movie really blew it by not releasing it in the theatres in the United States. They have a gem on their hands that they did not recognize.

    The story with all the twists and turns is great. All the actors are very good.



    4 out of 5 stars Nicholas and the terrible horrible no good very bad day   July 11, 2008
    G. E. Williams (California)
    3 out of 3 found this review helpful

    Red Rock West is intended as a "Hitchcockesque" psycho-drama but really ends up being more of a "Black Comedy" of errors. Nicholas Cage, plays the same character he often does ( the down on his luck man with principles) and does it pretty well, this time his character's luck starts out bad then things go downhill sharply from there. Dennis Hopper plays the same character we often see him as (the cartoonish, mentally unbalanced man capable of anything) and again, does it well.

    So here's the deal...
    This film is a pretty good pop-corn movie and not a bad way to spend an hour and a half or so. If this was a book I'd be upset that I wasted my time, but as a movie it works pretty well.
