McQ Ratings & Reviews
Mister Arn
May 25, 2025
Wayne is too old to play an action hero, and it makes some of the scenes in MCQ laughable.
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
McQ is like a dull fifties movie.
Los Angeles Free Press
Dick Lochte
John Wayne, at 65, is nothing less than a national monument. And he deserves better upkeep and attention than his latest film, McQ, provides.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Judith Crist
There are killings aplenty fore and aft, car chases galore, lots of non-actors to match Wayne; lots of actors to be wasted... lots of flashy photography of Seattle to glaze the eye, and marble-mouthed dialogue to stultify the brain.
Creative Loafing
Matt Brunson
It's more a rumor than cold, hard fact that Wayne was offered the role of Dirty Harry and passed on it. At any rate, the Duke played his own version of Inspector Harry Callahan in this agreeable if stridently unexceptional film.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
The Duke, desperate to maintain his hold with viewers, tries to step into the Dirty harry territory with this disappointing crimer.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A rethinking, if you will, by the Duke of turning down the role of Dirty Harry.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Without the Duke, this would be a mediocre police adventure
