'Sunset' is one of Blake Edwards's best; far better than the later Pink Panther films, which documented Peter Sellers's descent into self-parody. It is also, despite some complaints, reasonably accurate, for what it is - an entertainment with some roots in... Full review

Garner and Willis are great as the cool heroes. McDowell is wonderful as the villain and the comic chemistry is good. Only a good script is missing. Nevertheless it is a good movie to watch and enjoy with brain turned off.... Full review

"Sunset" is the blackest of black comedies. I was surprised to learn from watching it on TV last night what a really fun movie it is, given the uniformly bad reviews it received. Pay no attention to the critics, this is... Full review

This movie has been kicking around on cable TV lately and I've put off watching it because I expected it to be another very stretched version of a buddy cop movie. The story seems made for it. Experienced old real-life marshal... Full review

A light Western with a great cast. Perhaps a little corny at times but with the plot twists and humor of the movie I found myself enjoying the entire movie. The fact that Tom Mix had a great respect for Wyatt... Full review

Ultimately, "Sunset" plays like deluxe dinner theater fare.
Admittedly, this is a minor pleasure, but for the first section of "Sunset" it at least keeps your interest up.

Half of the movie wants to be cheerful, and the other half seems morbid and disenchanted.
" Sunset " sounds like a terrific idea for a movie.
elegiac mood film in which Hollywood seems like a vaguely disappointing place
