CRITICS OF "Best Seller"

Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Ingenious big city cop film.

TheWorldJournal.com

This Best Seller is a fabulous read...slick, taut, and involving. Woods and Dennehy make for an unconventional crime-chasing pair.

May 31, 2003

Moviehole

One of the edgiest, most suspenseful thrillers of the 1980's....Woods is amazing

March 31, 2005

Apollo Guide

The two leads make Best Seller easy to sit through, but the wandering script by Larry Cohen and the dreary pacing offered by director John Flynn sink what could have been a can't-miss b-movie hoot.

February 21, 2003

Fantastica Daily

A knockout. An intense, imaginative and exciting multilayered thriller. Woods and Dennehy are both outstanding. One of the unsung great movies of the 1980s.

October 08, 2005

Seanax.com

[Larry] Cohen cannily mixes social satire and genre twists in his clever screenplay of an unlikely friendship between two men with more history than they realize...

The Dissolve

Best Seller wouldn't amount to much without Woods' foul, sadistic, gleefully profane edge.

March 30, 2015

Resource

Combustible Celluloid

Concentrate(s) on character interactions, shootouts, and chases, with things like plot and motivation taking a back seat. The slick, 1980s design does the rest.
