Grand Theft Parsons Ratings & Reviews
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
Don't let Knoxville's Jackass pedigree put you off - he can be subtle as well as gross.
Draxblog Movie Reviews
Dragan Antulov
there are worse ways to pay respect to music legends
Variety
Leslie Felperin
Inspired by a true story, pic travels down familiar genre highways, but quirky humor and an apt soundtrack make for a pleasant enough journey.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
What could have served as a colorful episode in a more expansive film about the famed singer has instead become the premise of a mildly entertaining but overextended road movie that doesn't succeed on either dramatic or comedic terms.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Grand Theft Parsons showcases some of Parsons's songs, but ... in the end it is a tribute to a man who stayed true to his word.
Newsday
John Anderson
The Phil-Larry dynamic makes up most of the movie and the strain of turning an anecdote into an demi-epic can be felt throughout the movie.
TV Guide
Ken Fox
A dramatically inert buddy-road picture that's too shapeless to ever click.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Gram Parsons' last rites were among the most extraordinary in rock history. Too bad this retelling of the singer's final adventure is so tame.
Boxoffice Magazine
Mark Keizer
It's an aggravating film that seems content to skim the surface before folding up its tent after a scant 88 minutes.
New York Post
Megan Lehmann
A ho-hum, meandering road movie, albeit with an extremely cool soundtrack.
E! Online
Parsons' memory deserves a better movie than this.
Los Angeles CityBeat
Luke Y. Thompson
Caffrey keeps the energy level high, and has populated the supporting roles with the most comical-looking character types ever assembled outside of a David Lynch film.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
The script ... leaves a lot to be desired, strewn with dialogue as flat and stale as old beer and some invented characters who make the events depicted seem more silly than anarchic.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Since his death in 1973, the country singer Gram Parsons's legend has become a figure of worshipful legend, to which this rambling, low-key movie makes a modest contribution.
L.A. Weekly
John Patterson
Irish director David Caffrey and English screenwriter Jeremy Drysdale have, respectively, zero sense of pace and a tin-eared grasp of period speech, and together fail either to let us care about their characters or to create any sense of a living era.

Oz
I can't say that Johnny Knoxville won't one day exhibit some acting scope, but I haven't seen it yet, and that makes a movie hinged on his name and talent a dicey proposition.
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
As a mildly engaging and well-intentioned 'road flick', it's much better than it should have been and certainly less commanding than it probably could have been.
Film Threat
Chad Bixby
A rock'n'roll road movie like no other. Wherever he is, Gram should get a kick out of it.
EricDSnider.com
Eric D. Snider
It's given a low-key treatment that only serves to highlight the parts that don't seem logical, but the outgoing performances make it watchable, if not especially memorable.
