Besides the neato Sam Raimi camerawork and the short appearance of Bruce Campbell, Crimewave didn't do too much for me. A few laughs here and there due in part to some intentional over the top acting and set design but overall pretty forgettable.

Considering the people involved, I was hoping to enjoy this. It just turned out to be fairly weird and fairly crappy.

Evil Dead crazyness in a 'zany' period crime caper really doesn't work well at all, but does manage to raise a few laughs when it's not plain annoying. Moments of invention help too and Campbell is at his most Bruceyness.

A dream collaboration of Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and the Coen brothers proves to be by far the worst film all parties have been involved in...

i remember this film from years back the Rat Catchers are great and the flying plates part is very funny

Un film de Raimi scenarise par les frères Coen ??? Ben oui, mais ils ne devaient pas etre en grande forme : ce n'est pas tres drole et l'histoire est plus que moyenne.

One of the funniest movie I've ever seen. It bares similarities to the other Raimi/Coen collaboration "The Hudsucker Proxy", except this one's more insane and bares no sign of logic or plot.

It's just a surreal (or unreal) world in which hilarity can ensue. Quite dumb, but worth a barrel of laughs.

Totalt kaotisk og syrealistisk historie. De fleste vil hade den. Den skal ses! Bruce Campbell spiller som sædvanligt blændende.

Brilliant combination of humor and timing through the writing and character performance. Sam Raimi delivers a comedy exhibiting his own unique style and providing classic eighties entertainment.

Written by the Coen Brothers and directed by Sam Raimi, this one is billed as an "unconventional comedy". Unconventional is an understatement. This is one bizarre movie.

Unconventional is an understatement. This is one bizarre movie. I feel like I really needed to be high to fully appreciate this movie, so maybe I wasn't getting the full effect. But it's got Bruce Campbell in it, so that's kinda cool... I guess.
