The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter Ratings & Reviews
Keith & the Movies
Keith Garlington
"Whitetail" is only an occasionally funny satire. I kind of see what Hill and McBride are shooting for (no pun intended), but it's never silly enough, never thoughtful enough, or even clever enough to land with much conviction.
Vague Visages
Q.V. Hough
The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter lacks true grit. Its designed to feel relatable, yet Brolins impassioned performance can only do so much to override the stock dialogue and the narratives lack of originality.
Pittsburgh Magazine
Sean Collier
It's just not funny. It's earnest and heartfelt, but the jokes miss or are omitted.
Decider
Joe Reid
It's a real bummer.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter, like so many other Netflix movies, feels like a first draft that still could use some more punching up and focus.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Chris Bumbray
While The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter doesn't come close to being on-par with Hill's other work, being too mainstream and toned-down, it's still a solid watch and good for a few laughs.
The Film Stage
John Fink
Still, Hill's choices are mostly smart, and the film works well when throwing the three men - Brolin, McBride, and Jordan - together into set pieces recycled from better comedies.
Film Inquiry
Josh Martin
It's a shame that such an idiosyncratic father/son story still feels so rote and recycled, suffering under the weight of its silly desire to constantly verbalize and explain even the tiniest of character moments.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Comedy is here, but not always a priority to Hill, who's aiming for more of a character study than a laugh riot, and this picture doesn't benefit from a general muting of silliness.
The Daily Dot
Eddie Strait
This is the kind of movie that may catch your attention while browsing. Fight the urge to give it a shot.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Parody lands with a thud; language, violence, drinking.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
The Legacy Of A Whitetail Deer Hunter offers only the pokiest and most rote of plots.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It's salvaged by a truly genuine, sometimes great performance from Josh Brolin, but he's the only reason to take a look.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
Likable, thanks to the obvious affection and compassion that the filmmakers and their leading actor have for men like Buck.
ScreenCrush
Britt Hayes
The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter is a major disappointment, but, as proven by two phenomenal seasons of Vice Principals, Hill is still more than capable of delivering the goods.
Consequence
Dan Caffrey
It succeeds as a minor work from Jody Hill, which if nothing else is still good for more than a few laughs.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Jacob Knight
To be frank, The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter is definitely the worst film Hill and McBride have made together, but if you're a longtime fan, there's still plenty to giggle at here.
Den of Geek
David Crow
For Hill and McBride's cult following, this will be enough, especially to stream, but I wish it didn't throw away so much of its talented ammunition.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Far too much of this wildly uneven Netflix-bound comedy plays less like a transgressive farce than an overextended "Saturday Night Live" sketch.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
There are some real missed opportunities here.
