Critic Reviews of "The 'Burbs"
Chicago TribuneFebruary 22, 2017The 'Burbs doesnit quite go the distance, but for most of its length it is a superbly inventive, insightful and funny black comedy.
Orlando SentinelFebruary 22, 2017This movie was directed by Joe Dante, whose style has become increasingly broad and abrasive since he made the clever Gremlins back in 1984.
Chicago TribuneFebruary 22, 2017The script would like to be a horror film, a comedy and a commentary on suburban living, but it doesn't hit any target.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009Director Joe Dante funnels his decidedly cracked view of suburban life through dark humour in The 'Burbs.
Time OutFebruary 09, 2006Characteristically, Dante's nonchalant attitude towards plot structure makes for erratic pacing (the last half hour does flag), but that's part and parcel of his breathless, anarchic style.
New York TimesAugust 30, 2004The Burbs is a big unfurnished movie about some very small characters living in a suburbia that is consciously designed to look like sit-com land.
South Florida Sun-SentinelFebruary 22, 2017Tom Hanks should forfeit his Academy Award nomination for Big, now that preview audiences have gotten a look at The `Burbs.
Radio TimesFebruary 22, 2017[Director Joe Dante] excels at this sort of thing and delivers an intriguing picture, even though it threatens to stray into David Lynch territory but ultimately cops out. Bruce Dern and Carrie Fisher offer fine support to the affable Hanks.
TV GuideFebruary 22, 2017This black comedy is often hilarious, but is betrayed by an ending forced on Dante by the film's producers.
